I like the way you handle the internal boot on the MX51. Very smart approach ;-)

MX25 and MX35 can also benefit from the imximage utility that you proposed, so please change the description to make it more generic, such as:

"The imximage can be used on MX25, MX35 and MX51 processors for handling internal boot mode."

You could write: "... that can be booted by Freescale MX25, MX35 and MX51 processors via internal boot mode"

MX25, MX35, MX51 can set

MX25, MX35 and MX51 Boot image ...
