Try to use:

arm-elf-objcopy -O binary <app-name>

Then try something like this in Redboot:

load -r -m xmodem -b 0x2020000

0x2020000 should be free on this platform.  When you 'fis write' specify
0x2020000 as the source (base) location:

fis-write -b 0x2020000 -f 0x1000000 -l <size of app.>

This should do it.
