+Board information
+-----------------
+
+The SBC produced by Phytec has a SOM based on a i.MX6Q.
+The SOM is sold in two versions, with eMMC or with NAND. Support
+here is for the SOM with NAND.
+The evaluation board "phyBoard-Mira" is thought to be used
+together with the SOM.
+
+More information on the board can be found on manufacturer's
+website:
+
+http://www.phytec.de/produkt/single-board-computer/phyboard-mira/

+
+Building U-Boot
+-------------------------------
+
+$ make pcm058_defconfig
+$ make
+
+This generates the artifacts SPL and u-boot.img.
+The SOM can boot from NAND or from SD-Card, having the SPI-NOR
+as second option.
+The dip switch "DIP-1" on the board let choose between
+NAND and SD.
+
+DIP-1 set to off: Boot first from NAND, then try SPI
+DIP-1 set to on: Boot first from SD, then try SPI
+
+The bootloader was tested with DIP-1 set to on. If a SD-card
+is present, then the RBL tries to load SPL from the SD Card, if not,
+RBL loads from SPI-NOR. The SPL tries then to load from the same
+device where SPL was loaded (SD or SPI). Booting from NAND is
+not supported.
