De-bricking Avila Gateworks with a JTAG programmer



Hi guys.

I managed to wipe out entire NAND playing with my Avila Gateworks 2348-4 board [1].
If I understand it correctly I would need a JTAG programmer to load and store RedBoot loader in the NAND again.
The thing is I never used a JTAG before; I know little about them and I am not sure what options I have.
Googling I found I could probably use a JTAG device from gateworks wich costs 100$.
But I like playing with different hardware and I'd rather get a JTAG which I could reuse with other boards.
The Avila board has a 14-pin JTAG port.
Would it be possible to use a JTAG device like [2] - [6] and reflash the NAND on my board?
The TJTAG software [7] claims to work with [2] and support the Xscale ARM CPU of my board.
But I really have no clue about JTAGs and would very appreciate any help...

Thanks in advance.
Marcin.
