Specifically, you're interested in = the=20 -m flag. -m 0xa should be what you want (unless I've got it backwards an= d=20 you really want -m 0x5.. anyone else care to clarify?) AFAIK, you can't change the names without editing boot0 by hand.. and sin= ce=20 it's a tightly-packaged piece of assembly, I'm not sure how wise that wou= ld=20 be.
