+Boot Linux via TFTP (using U-Boot)
+==================================
+
+Note: This boot flow requires a TFTP server.
+
+Boot your system into U-Boot, using an alternative boot method (e.g. JTAG, SD).
+
+Place the following images into the root of the TFTP server directory:
+        * core-image-minimal-<machine name>.ext2.gz.u-boot (RootFS)
+        * linux.bin.ub or uImage (Linux Kernel)
+        * <kernel binary>-<machine name>.dtb (DTB)
+
+The serial console of the target board will display the U-Boot console.
+Configure the 'ipaddr' and 'serverip' of the U-Boot environment.
+        U-Boot> set serverip <server ip>
+        U-Boot> set ipaddr <board ip>
+
+Using the U-Boot console; load the Kernel, RootFS and the DTB into memory.
+And then boot Linux using the 'bootm' command. (Note the load addresses will
+be dependant on machine used)
+
+For MicroBlaze (kc705-trd-microblazeel):
+        U-Boot> tftp 0x86000000 linux.bin.ub
+        U-Boot> tftp 0x85000000 core-image-minimal-<machine name>.ext2.gz.u-boot
+        U-Boot> tftp 0x84000000 linux.bin.ub-<machine name>.dtb
+        U-Boot> bootm 0x86000000 0x85000000 0x84000000
+
+For Zynq:
+        U-Boot> tftp 0x3000000 uImage
+        U-Boot> tftp 0x2000000 core-image-minimal-<machine name>.ext2.gz.u-boot
+        U-Boot> tftp 0x2A00000 uImage-<machine name>.dtb
+        U-Boot> bootm 0x3000000 0x2000000 0x2A00000
+
+U-Boot will prepare the Kernel for boot and then it will being to initialize.
