If all you did was a load and no fis write then you haven't written to 
the flash.  I'd like to mention tho that unless you're doing something 
really silly like using the NAND for a swap partition, or constantly 
writing to it in your application, you shouldn't have to worry too much 
about wrecking it :)  If you're really worried, grab a CompactFlash 
microdrive which is a CF sized hard drive, Redboot will load a kernel 
and file system directly from the CF slot on the 7200.
