+Get and Build the ARM Trusted Firmware
+--------------------------------------
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ git clone -b toradex_imx_5.4.24_2.1.0 http://git.toradex.com/cgit/imx-atf.git

+ $ make PLAT=imx8qx bl31
+
+Get scfw_tcm.bin and ahab-container.img
+---------------------------------------
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ wget https://github.com/toradex/i.MX-System-Controller-Firmware/blob/master/src/scfw_export_mx8qx_b0/build_mx8qx_b0/mx8qx-apalis-scfw-tcm.bin
+ $ wget https://www.nxp.com/lgfiles/NMG/MAD/YOCTO/imx-seco-3.6.3.bin
+ $ chmod +x imx-seco-3.6.3.bin
+ $ ./imx-seco-3.6.3.bin

+ $ cp imx-atf/build/imx8qx/release/bl31.bin .
+ $ cp imx-seco-3.6.3/firmware/seco/mx8qxb0-ahab-container.img mx8qx-ahab-container.imx8_defconfig
+
+Build U-Boot
+------------
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ make apalis-imx8x_defconfig
+ $ make u-boot-dtb.imx
+
+Load the U-Boot Binary Using UUU
+--------------------------------

+Get the latest version of the universal update utility (uuu) aka ``mfgtools 3.0``:
+
+https://community.nxp.com/external-link.jspa?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FNXPmicro%2Fmfgtools%2Freleases
+
+Put the module into USB recovery aka serial downloader mode, connect USB device
+to your host and execute uuu:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ sudo ./uuu u-boot/u-boot-dtb.imx
+
+Flash the U-Boot Binary into the eMMC
+-------------------------------------
+
+Burn the ``u-boot-dtb.imx`` binary to the primary eMMC hardware boot area
+partition and boot:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ load mmc 1:1 $loadaddr u-boot-dtb.imx
+ setexpr blkcnt ${filesize} + 0x1ff && setexpr blkcnt ${blkcnt} / 0x200
+ mmc dev 0 1
+ mmc write ${loadaddr} 0x0 ${blkcnt}
