AM57xx (omap?) boot method #86

Hello,

While looking at a previous project using a TI AM57xx SoC , I noticed that the boot method still requires a custom host tool (usbboot-stand-alone) provided by a git repository that no longer exist "git://git.omapzoom.org/repo/omapboot.git" (We can still find some unofficial copy on Github) [1]. See the TRM "34.3.5 Peripheral Booting" chapter [2].

The AM57xx ROM code seems different than the one used by the Beagleboneblack's AM33 SoC.

Have you considered this boot method?
I still have an AM574x IDK evaluation board for runtime testing.
