Use a boot script.  Simply type the same commands as you
are into the script and RedBoot will run them when you reset.
For example, on an embedded Linux system I'm working on:

    RedBoot> fc -l
    Run script at boot: true
    Boot script: 
    .. fi loa Linux
    .. ex -c "root=/dev/mtdblock2 init=/bin/run_modem noinitrd console-ttySA0,38400"
