Hi,

I'm willing to start to learn arm.
I have bought the board : http://www.olimex.com/dev/sam7-p256.html
I have made some tests loading the code in flash using SAM-BA.
Is any bootloader available in order to send the code in controller at
the moment when the board is connected to pc trough usb cable ?

Regards,
Daniel

For development you should try to get a JTAG-interface. Support for
flash-programming of AT91SAM7S in the free software OpenOCD is rather
good and the adapters like the Olimex ARM-JTAG or Amontec JTAGkey/-tiny
are rather inexpensive. You can also use these FT2232-based adapters for
debugging.
