+BootROM/MaskROM mode
+--------------------
+
+Options to get your board into BootROM mode:
+
+* Holding the recovery button when you boot the board.
+* Remove the SD card.
+* Erase the NAND, MMC or SPI chip part where the BootROM blocks are located.
+
+Methods of last resort (USE AT YOUR OWN RISK):
+
+* NAND: connect pin 8 and 9 of the NAND flash with a needle while
+  reconnecting to the USB OTG port to a PC.
+* EMMC: short the clock line to ground while reconnecting to the USB OTG port to a PC.
