tool, mention this method instead of the old one that relied on ymodem.

OCRAM and starts it. SPL will check for a valid u-boot.img, and
because it is not found, it will wait for it using the y-modem
protocol via the console.
A first install is then possible by combining imx_usb_loader with
another tool such as kermit.
sudo ../imx_usb_loader/imx_usb -v SPL
kermit kermit_uboot
and kermit_uboot contains something like this (set line should be adjusted):
set line /dev/ttyUSB1
set speed 115200
SET CARRIER-WATCH OFF
set flow-control none
set handshake none
set prefixing all
set file type bin
set protocol ymodem
send u-boot.img

The last "c" command tells kermit (from ckermit package in most distros)
to switch from command line mode to communication mode, and when the
script is finished, the U-Boot prompt is shown in the same shell.
