No.  The documentation describes the use of the software when _using_
that rom monitor.  We had to choose something and it is impossible
to properly document an arbitrary set of tools for a board that arrives
without any useful software installed.  There seems to be as many
different methods as people using these boards.

If you purchase the software subscription, MontaVista will also
program your SIMM so you are ready to go (no need to purchase the
expensive JTAG tools).  Of course, the monitor is also available for
you to use as you wish.
