How to use and build U-Boot on mx6sabresd:
----------------------------------
Currently there are three methods for booting mx6sabresd boards:
Currently there are four methods for booting mx6sabresd boards:
1. Booting via Normal U-Boot (u-boot.imx)
1. Booting from SD card via normal U-Boot (u-boot.imx)
2. Booting via SPL (SPL and u-boot.img)
2. Booting from eMMC via normal U-Boot
3. Booting via Falcon mode (SPL launches the kernel directly)

This will generate the image called u-boot.imx.
- Flash the u-boot.imx binary into the eMMC:
Set SW6 to download mode: 00001100
Plug a usb cable to USB-OTG and load the u-boot image using the imx_usb_loader
tool (https://github.com/boundarydevices/imx_usb_loader):
$ sudo ./imx_usb u-boot.imx
In U-boot change the eMMC partition config:
=> mmc partconf 2 1 0 0
Mount the eMMC in the host PC:
=> ums 0 mmc 2
Flash the u-boot.imx binary
$ sudo dd if=u-boot.imx of=/dev/sdX bs=1K seek=1 && sync
Set SW6 to eMMC 8-bit boot: 11010110
