I have tried to flash via redboot with next commands:
RedBoot> fis init -f
RedBoot> ip_address -l 172.16.3.228 -h 172.16.3.89
RedBoot> load -r -b %{FREEMEMLO} kernel.bin
RedBoot> fis create -b 0x01900000 -l 0x000C0000 -e 0x01900000 kernel
RedBoot> load -r -b %{FREEMEMLO} rootfs.bin
RedBoot> fis create -b 0x00800000 -l 0x006A0000 -e 0x00800000 rootfs
I really don't know but maybe setting entry point (-e) instead of flash addr above is the problem?
When I try lo load and exec kernel, I get next message:
RedBoot> fis load kernel
RedBoot> exec -b 0x01900000 -l 0x00100000 -c "console=ttyS0,9600 root=/dev/mtdblock2 rw rootfstype=jffs2"
