+NXP i.MX8MP FRDM Development Board
+=================================
+
+
+Boot Media
+----------
+
+Booting is available via multiple sources (Compare Table 3: Boot Switch Configuration in Quick Start Guide)
+
+.. csv-table:: Boot Switch :rst:dir:`csv-table`
+ :header: "Boot Mode", "SW5-1", "SW5-2", "SW5-3", "SW5-4"
+
+ "Boot from Internal Fuses", "0", "0", "0", "0"
+ "Serial Downloader", "0", "0", "0", "1"
+ "Boot from USDHC3 eMMC 5.1", "0", "0", "1", "0"
+ "Boot from USDHC2 SD card", "0", "0", "1", "1"
+
+
+Booting from USB and NFS
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Upload the bootloader ``platform-v8a/images/barebox-nxp-imx8mp-frdm.img`` via USB:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+ platform-v8a/sysroot-host/bin/imx-usb-loader platform-v8a/images/barebox-nxp-imx8mp-frdm.img
+
+In Barebox, set the default boot location to nfs:
+
+ nv boot.default nfs://dude05//ptx/work/user/fpf/DistroKit/platform-v8a/root
+
+replace the path to one, where you have compiled your Distrokit
+
+
+Booting via SD-Card
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Write the image ``platform-v8a/images/imx8mp-frdm.img`` to a microSD card. Put the
+microSD card into the board and boot it.
+
+
+Serial Console
+--------------
+
+The serial boot console is available via the USB-C Debug connector on the board.
+It brings 2 UARTS, whereas the first is the serial console used by kernel and bootloader.
