I am searching for a reliable UART bootloader for PIC18F2458 which works with linux platform.
 

Did we not previously have this discussion? Or was it a USB PIC bootloader?

The following PIC18F based UART bootloaders have Linux compatibility:

Jolt PIC18F Bootloader

Tiny PIC bootloader - See Link Below for Linux Compatible App

Tiny Pic Bootloader for GNU/Linux - Linux App for Above Bootloader

**broken link removed**

Colt PIC18F Bootloader - Non Java Based Version of Jolt With WIN App, Possibly Ported to Linux


While the following is not UART based, it is quite novel:

Zero Pin Loader (ZPL) for the PIC18F Family

The ZPL—a bootloader for the PIC18Fxxx series—avoids the use of I/O pins by exploiting the *MCLR pin as the only interface between the host PC and the PIC microcontroller. The interface between the PC serial port and the target uses only six components. One of these is the standard *MCLR pull-up resistor. Two others are optional. You could leave out two more resistors, leaving just a single transistor. The interface circuit can be easily put in a DB9 shell, with a DIP clip for the connection to the target. The software runs on Windows and Linux (and other POSIX-compatible systems), and can be easily ported to other operating systems.
