a) The AXD Debugger is able to load the compiled u-boot loader even if it was
not compiled with Metrowerks Codewarrior. Of course, you have to select to load *.*
and not *.axf files. So there is no need to compile it under Metrowerks.
b) I'm quite sure that gdb can communicate with your JTAG interface, if the
AXD debugger can do so. The AXD Debugger uses the Arm/Angel protocol and the
gdb can do so, too. If the gdb has ARM support compiled in, it automatically adds
the necessary RDI entries for Arm/Angel support via ethernet and serial interface.
Therefore you can load u-boot into memory via JTAG, execute it and use u-boot to
write to flash.
