We DO need propeller-loader to load an image to the prop. Propeller-loader is included in propgcc, but has to be compiled separately, it is not done automatically in the highest level make; the make for propeller-loader is down under the loader directory. Propeller-loader is available separately, but still needs propgcc to be present or it given errors. The set up of both tools requires us to set up a bunch of environment variable with path names etc. but the setup is not defined in the documentation. Regardless, at least the compile finishes and the resulting executable functions to load the prop.
Did you try the link to p1load that I posted in an earlier message? It can load Spin .binary files and it doesn't need propgcc or openspin.
It's not current. Michael seems to not be into maintaining it any more and the original Google Code repo is archived. That just means it needs as Propeller and C# enthusiast to pick it up and run with it.

I did see p1load. We are trying to stick to the Parallax "official" tools, to guarantee that everybody gets identical results if they follow identical steps. I realize that you are developer on most of the significant official tools, but p1load is not listed as parallax inc. Of course, I will give it a whirl if we don't have sufficient result with the parallax official tools. It looks like propeller-loader functions sufficiently, I just have to figure out proper setup.

Yes, propeller-load should work fine. I just thought you were looking for a loader that didn't require you to install propgcc and openspin just to build it.
