Looks like you are working on the CEPC concept ( if I am correct ).

As long as you build a debug version you will always have to download 
and intialize from the the PB coz the image willl boot only after being 
connected to the PB . 
      So one thing you need to do is to build a release version .

Read loadcepc.exe for more info on loading the image .
Note : If you have a seperate boot loader for you target board which is 
capable of boot a image....you may directly flash the image ( nk.bin 
...release version)  and let you bootloader do it automagically.
