Is there a way to access the persistant flash memory from linux?
I can upload a program to my 537-stamp board, but when I reboot linux it's gone. What's the best way to get a program on there permanantly?

If here "persistant flash" means parallel nor flash or serial (spi) nor flash, you may cp image in linux like this:
root:/> flash_eraseall /dev/mtdx
root:/> cp my_image /dev/mtdx
If you mean nand flash, please use "nandwrite" in mtd-utils, "cp" cannot handle bad blocks.
