The boot ROM of NXP systems on a chip (SOCs) support configuring the peripherals through specific pins of the system on a chip. On the i.MX6 family it also supports configuring the boot order through efuses. The boot ROM of several NXP SoCs have many ways to load the first stage bootloader (from eMMC, microSD, USB, etc.).
Parts of coreboot becomes the systems BIOS and stays resident in memory after boot. Das U-Boot is a bootloader for embedded systems. It is used on systems that do not have a BIOS/UEFI but rather employ custom methods to read the bootloader into memory and execute it. Historical bootloaders, no longer in common use, include:
A bootloader, also spelled as boot loader [1] [2] or called bootstrap loader, is a computer program that is responsible for booting a computer and booting an operating system. If it also provides an interactive menu with multiple boot choices then it's often called a boot manager .
Unlocking the bootloader allows installing and running unsigned code on a device, including user customized software. Operating outside the manufacturer specification might usually result in voiding any warranties and may make the device susceptible to data theft, as the integrity of the operating system (as intended by the manufacturer) can no longer be guaranteed.

flashing lock/oem lock *** – locks an OEM unlocked bootloader. erase – erases a specific partition. reboot – reboots the device into either the main operating system, the system recovery partition or back into its boot loader. devices – displays a list of all devices (with the serial number) connected to the host computer.
Das U-Boot (subtitled "the Universal Boot Loader" and often shortened to U-Boot; see History for more about the name) is an open-source boot loader used in embedded devices to perform various low-level hardware initialization tasks and boot the device's operating system kernel.
GNU GRUB (short for GNU GRand Unified Bootloader, commonly referred to as GRUB) is a boot loader package from the GNU Project.GRUB is the reference implementation of the Free Software Foundation's Multiboot Specification, which provides a user the choice to boot one of multiple operating systems installed on a computer or select a specific kernel configuration available on a particular ...
The Primary Bootloader (PBL), which is stored in the Boot ROM [3] is the first stage of the boot process. This code is written by the chipset manufacturer. [4] The PBL verifies the authenticity of the next stage. On Samsung smartphones, the Samsung Secure Boot Key (SSBK) is used by the boot ROM to verify the next stages. [5]
