+DFU based boot
+--------------
+
+To boot the board over DFU, set the switches to DFU mode and connect to the
+USB type C DRD port on the board. After power-on the build artifacts needs to be
+uploaded one by one with a tool like dfu-util.

+.. am62x_evm_rst_include_start_dfu_boot
+
+The initial ROM will have a DFU alt named `bootloader` for the initial R5 spl
+upload. The next stages as exposed by U-Boot have target alts matching the name
+of the artifacts, for these a USB reset has to be done after each upload.
+
+When using dfu-util the following commands can be used to boot to a U-Boot shell:
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
