Didn't we discuss this once before? There were some suggestions posted.

I am using a high speed serial S-record downloader. I guess I will
be posting the boot rom and the loader for the EST8260 when I get
a chance later this week. I then load and flash a kernel the same
way. I have some flash utilities that run from Linux and just reflash
kernels into different areas for testing. I have just finished a
program to hack the zImage header so the VxWorks boot rom will load
it. I only spent about half an hour, so it needs a little cleaning up,
but it seems to work. I am hoping someone will provide a TFTP loader
for the code I post.......
