Except for most basic tests like writing and reading single cells  in
memory  which  can be done using the "mm" and "md" commands, the most
reasonable approach is a two-pass sort  of  solution:  in  the  first
pass, bring up U-Boot at least to the extent that it boots from flash
and has the serial console running.

Best regards,
