For development, RedBoot is worthless. But if You need firmware-upgrades in
the field, then RedBoot can be usefull.
You need ~0x10000 bytes of flash-space (the hole sam7s64) and a
JTAG-emulator.
So i think RedBoot make sens only for the sam7s128 and 256...

Personaly, i don't recommend using Redboot with this system. I do all
my development using eCos ROM applications and JTAG for download and
gdb. This removes the need for RedBoot.
