Assembly to Machine code

Install the WinARM package. Default makefile of the WinARM examples
generate the .bin file. Those are the machine codes. (I do not think
I edited the makefile)

One thing I still do not know/understand is:
- I've been working on LPC21xx.  I usually convert the .bin file
  to .h file and compile with my windows VC++ custom loader
  program.  VC++ program then downloaded the ARM code onto the
  LPC21xx without any problem as the LPC21xx codes always start
  at address=0
- Now I'm working on the AT91Sam7x.  The lwip demo program also
  generates a .bin file of about 100K+ bytes.  I use Samba to
  burn the .bin file onto the Sam7x-EK and it works fine.  Samba
  powers up with a default flash programming location of 0x100000

New Questions:
- This binary file generated for both LPC21xx and AT91Sam7x
  should be pure machine codes, right?
- There should be no load information inside the .bin file, right?
- User must "offset" the .bin file to the target flash address
  "manually", right?
- I can take that AT91SAM7X .bin file, convert to .h file,
  compile with my VC++ program and download to my own
  custom AT91SAM loader, right? What I need to do is move
  it to target 0x100000 (1MByte for AT91Sam7x)
- Linker, when generating .bin file, took the Code offset
  location from atmel-rom.ld linker script file, right?
