Andreas,

I'm brand brand brand new to ARM-GCC, just building and programming my
first .hex file.  I downloaded the OS X toolchain and am trying to
program an AT91SAM7S64 using an FTDI USB-to-serial adapter (not sure of
the brand name.)

I've got your patched lpc21isp binary but programming seems to be
hanging -- see output I've pasted below.  Not sure however if this is
due to nonblocking I/O or something else ("You may have to bring the
target into bootloader-mode now"???)

Thanks for any help you might have!
John

Hi,

lpc21isp doesn't work for AT91SAM7. I don't have any experience with
this controller family, and I don't know any tool for AT91SAM7
programming on OS X. You might want to start a new topic with this
question.
