No, this message tells you that RedBoot got an error, probably within
the FLASH access code itself.  In this case the code was executing
at location 0x02028CA0 - you can look this up in your ROM .elf image.

What you see is GDB strings which indicate the failure.  Unless you
connect with a GDB client, you won't be able to make much sense of them.
If you type characters, it will just spit out the same string (unless
you know how to type GDB internal protocol!)
