I'm tying this method. I had to go to kermit because I never had
suscess loading serially with minicom.  I had problems with kermit in
the past but couldn't remember what it was... until now.  I've always
had fatal errors after a few bytes are transmitted. I get some error,
then it tries to resend but had too many errors. I'm not really sure
how to get past this as I'm configured the serial line accordingly.
Is this a common "user error" problem with ckermit? I've double
checked my config option with uboot docs.
