Have you followed the steps in serial_blaster/serial_blaster_1.0/README ?
So you got, before the redboot boot message?
waiting for ']'
found ']'

Maybe just wrong minicom settings? Try to enable local echo, it's ctrl-a then
'z' and then 'e' for on/off. You seems to have correct baudrate set, because
you see some output in minicom and not garbage.

You just need the redboot sources if you want to compile it yourself. That
binary provided by Curtis just works.
