Updating U-Boot downloading the files through the serial port has the 
advantage of not needing to copy them on a media, but is slightly more 
complicated. I have therefore added a new method on the debian wiki 
using a USB media, and which doesn't require changing the DIP switches. 
It still requires a serial port access to enter the U-Boot commands.

Hope it helps.
