[ECOS] download images on the board

[ECOS] download images on the board

[Ricardo Andrino]

Hello!!

I have built and linked the examples programs with the configuration that i have done but my questions is when you connect to the board and run the examples i don't know what kind of file is downloaded an .elf file or an executable.
Another question, I am using AT91EB40A with has a ROM monitor (Angel), should i install Redboot or with this bootstrap program is enough?

I would appreciate all kind of help. 
Thanks a lot

Redboot can handle srec, elf or pure binary:

Redboot is recommended.

gcc produces elf files by default. For other formats you convert the
elf using arm-elf-objcopy.
