+How to write the boot.bin and u-boot.itb to QSPI boot flash
+==========================================================
 
 The Kria SOMs are preconfigured to boot initially from QSPI.
 This makes these boards different from other ZynqMP boards
-in that the boot.bin needs to be flashed into the QSPI boot
-flash such that the U-Boot SPL can then load all of the
-remaining images from the SD card.

 In addition, the KV260 Starter Kit QSPI comes pre-flashed with
 a utility designed to make updating the QSPI flash memory
 easier.

+Instructions for using these utilities to update the files
 in QSPI flash can be found on the wiki link below.

+Additionally, it is possible to use u-boot for updating the
+QSPI with new boot.bin and u-boot.itb images with the u-boot
+commands below:
+
+Flashing u-boot.itb:
+    $ sf probe
+    $ fatload mmc 1 0x1000000 u-boot.itb
+    $ sf erase 0xf80000 +$filesize
+    $ sf write 0x1000000 0xf80000 $filesize
+
+Flashing boot.bin:
+    $ sf probe
+    $ fatload mmc 1 0x1000000 boot.bin
+    $ sf erase 0x200000 +$filesize
+    $ sf write 0x1000000 0x200000 $filesize
+
 It is possible to boot the Buildroot generated SD card image without
 updating the QSPI boot.bin image, so this is an optional step.
