When the user installs them. Install u-boot-imx and see /usr/share/doc/u-boot-imx/README.Debian* for instructions on how to install u-boot manually. If you have no memory of installing it explicitly, it was probably included as part using an old debian-installer image, such as the netboot SD card images: https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/jessie/main/installer-armhf/current/images/netboot/SD-card-images/ For a newer installer image: https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stretch/main/installer-armhf/current/images/netboot/SD-card-images/ live well, vagrant
