Hi

I have used recently At91SAM9263-EK and At91SAM9G45EKES evaluation boards to test our applications. I used SAM-BA to program AT91Bootstrap, U-boot, Linux kernel and filesystem on the board (u-boot, kernel, Filesystem all on the NANDFLASH) and has worked fine.

My question is - can I use SAM-BA to program our production boards also? The production broads when they come from manufacturer have just the hardware (processor and other ICs) on it and no software at all on it yet. Do I need some other mechanism (like ICE interface) as a must on my production boards to be able to program AT91SAM9G45 based boards or SAM-BA will be able to do it.

Thanks.
