+====

+The AM335x GP EVM ships with a 256MiB NAND available in most profiles. In
+this example to program the NAND we assume that an SD card has been
+inserted with the files to write in the first SD slot and that mtdparts
+have been configured correctly for the board. As a time saving measure we
+load MLO into memory in one location, copy it into the three locatations
+that the ROM checks for additional valid copies, then load U-Boot into
+memory. We then write that whole section of memory to NAND.
