      1. SATA usage in U-Boot
	There are two ways to operate the hard disk
	* Read/write raw blocks from/to SATA hard disk
	* ext2load to read a file from ext2 file system
1.0 How to read the SATA hard disk's information?
	=> sata info
SATA device 0: Model: ST3320620AS Firm: 3.AAD Ser#:		4QF01ZTN
	    Type: Hard Disk
	    Supports 48-bit addressing
	    Capacity: 305245.3 MB = 298.0 GB (625142448 x 512)
1.1 How to raw write the kernel, file system, dtb to a SATA hard disk?
	Notes: Hard disk sectors are normally 512 bytes, so
		0x1000 sectors = 2 MBytes
	write kernel
	=> tftp 40000 /tftpboot/uImage.837x
	=> sata write 40000 0 2000
	write ramdisk
	=> tftp 40000 /tftpboot/ramdisk.837x
	=> sata write 40000 2000 8000
	write dtb
	=> tftp 40000 /tftpboot/mpc837xemds.dtb
	=> sata write 40000 a000 1000
1.2 How to raw read the kernel, file system, dtb from a SATA hard disk?
	load kernel
	=> sata read 200000 0 2000
	load ramdisk
	=> sata read 1000000 2000 8000
	load dtb
	=> sata read 2000000 a000 1000
	boot
	=> bootm 200000 1000000 2000000
1.3 How to load an image from an ext2 file system in U-Boot?
	U-Boot doesn't support writing to an ext2 file system, so the
	files must be written by other means (e.g. linux).
	=> ext2ls sata 0:1 /
	<DIR>	    4096 .
	<DIR>	    4096 ..
	<DIR>	   16384 lost+found
		 1352023 uImage.837x
		 3646377 ramdisk.837x
		   12288 mpc837xemds.dtb
		      12 hello.txt
	=> ext2load sata 0:1 200000 /uImage.837x
	=> ext2load sata 0:1 1000000 /ramdisk.837x
	=> ext2load sata 0:1 2000000 /mpc837xemds.dtb
	=> bootm 200000 1000000 2000000
