you to confirm the u-boot version that was downloaded, and then confirm
that it was copied to flash.
+The above assumes that you are using the default board settings which
+have u-boot in the 8MB flash, tied to /CS0.
+
+If you are running the default 8MB /CS0 settings but want to store an
+image in the SODIMM that is built with CONFIG_SYS_ALT_BOOT enabled,
+(as a backup, etc) then the steps will become:
+
+ tftp u-boot.bin
+ md 200000 10
+ protect off all
+ era eff00000 efffffff
+ cp.b 200000 eff00000 100000
+ md eff00000 10
+ protect on all
+
+Finally, if you are running the alternate 64MB /CS0 settings and want
+to update the in-use u-boot image, then (again with CONFIG_SYS_ALT_BOOT
+enabled) the steps will become:
+
+ tftp u-boot.bin
