Hi Caglar, Thanks for the information
But in our custom board we have the USB port configured for device mode only with miniAB connector mounted. So I cannot configure as HOST One more limitation is I do not have Ethernet port :-( I was just thinking is there any small tool which can run on PC and download the kernel/FS to Flash?

You can also do these using USB gadgets, but I don't know the exact procedure. I hope I'm not getting your question wrong.
