What format is the data file in?  Remember that RedBoot's "load"
command only handles S-record files unless the '-r' flag is used.

If you try sending some other sort of file, e.g. an ELF binary,
to the "load" command, it will fail, but the error message most
likely will be lost (consumed) by the communications program (HyperTerm).
Bottom line - all you'll see is that it failed, without any real
indication of why.
