mounts a root file system located on a network server.

kernel, dtb,
and
ramdisk
are accessible to the board from the
TFTP server.

setenv ipaddr
setenv serverip
setenv gatewayip
setenv netmask
setenv bootargs 'root=/dev/ram rw console=ttyS0,9600n8
ramdisk_size=700000 cache-sram-size=0x10000'
saveenv
These serial access parameters are the default values. These values can be changed within the
U-Boot. For details, refer to the U-Boot documentation.
Enter the command setenv bootdelay -1; saveenv to disable the U-Boot auto-boot
feature and let the U-Boot directly enter the command line interface after the next
reboot/power up.
