Nitin,
I just forgot in my earlier reply that you may not be able to operate
as USB Host. In that case you can do the following
1. Expose a File on DM6446 file system as a USB device to Linux/winxp
PC (use file storage gadget).
2. copy the kernel and file system image to the exposed media from Pc.
3. Disconnect from PC.
4. Mount the file under DM6446 as a drive.
5. Copy the Kernel and File system to NOR as appropriate.
Regards
swami
