Disclaimer: I am not really a Kirkwood developer or at least not yet (;-p).

Recently, we started playing with mainline U-Boot/Linux kernel as part of an effort to port OpenWrt to the
MikroTik RB5009UG [1]. It features an Armada 7040 which is a 64-bit Arm SoC while kwboot mentions 32-bit
platforms only. Anyway, so far I was able to boot it using the good oldé mrvl_uart.sh script as follows:

⬢[zim at toolbox ~]$ ~/u-boot/tools/mrvl_uart.sh /dev/ttyUSB3 ~/arm-trusted-
firmware/build/a70x0_rb5009/release/flash-image.bin
Using device connected on serial port "/dev/ttyUSB3"
Loading flash image file "/var/home/zim/arm-trusted-firmware/build/a70x0_rb5009/release/flash-image.bin"
Recovery will run at 115200 baud
========================================
Press the "Reset" button on the target board and the "Enter" key on the host keyboard simultaneously
Sending /var/home/zim/Sources/arm-trusted-firmware.git/build/a70x0_rb5009/release/flash-image.bin, 11377
blocks: Give your local XMODEM receive command now.
Bytes Sent:1456384   BPS:7871                            

Transfer complete

Trying this with kwboot instead I was not successful as of yet. Not sure whether I am just missing something or
support for booting 64-bit platforms would yet need to be added.

Suggestions welcome. Thanks!
