[avr-gcc-list] pre-loading the internal EEPROM

[Max Klein]

Hello all,

Background:
I have been digging through the archives and google for 
the past few days, but still haven't found what I'm 
looking for. I have a project where I am using the EEPROM 
to store various configuration variables. The project 
involves many AVR controlled devices that all have the 
same software running on them, but each needs to have 
different EEPROM contents. I want to store the data in the 
EEPROM by address, so no fancy indexing or mappings are 
necessary.

The Problem:
All I want to do is create a .hex file (or whatever else 
works) with the EEPROM contents (byte-by-byte) so that I 
can mass-program my devices, and then go back and program 
the EEPROM on each device individually with an ISP. I 
don't mind using a hex editor to plug in the values 
one-by-one, but I just don't know where to start. I do 
*not* want the EEPROM contents to be listed in the C code, 
since the program is identical for all devices.

Any ideas? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :)
