How to enter flash mode

The SoC may boot from multiple sources depending on its initial state. If only the power button is pressed, the SoC will look for a bootloader on a protected eMMC partition (mounted by the kernel as /dev/mmcblk1boot0). However, if the user holds the center facial button while the power button is pressed, the SoC will instead enter recovery mode. In this mode, the SoC will await a payload to be delivered over USB with the imx_usb utility. Regardless of how the bootloader gets into memory, the sequence below is followed.

1. The SoC ROM loads and executes the bootloader

2. The bootloader loads and executes the kernel

3. The kernel mounts the filesystem and starts the init program as PID1
