 Interactive DDR debugging
 ===========================
 
-For DDR parameter tuning up and debugging, the interactive DDR debugging can
-be activated by saving an environment variable "ddr_interactive". The value
-doesn't matter. Once activated, U-boot prompts "FSL DDR>" before enabling DDR
-controller. The available commands can be seen by typing "help".
+For DDR parameter tuning up and debugging, the interactive DDR debugger can
+be activated by setting the environment variable "ddr_interactive" to any
+value.  (The value of ddr_interactive may have a meaning in the future, but,
+for now, the presence of the variable will cause the debugger to run.)  Once
+activated, U-Boot will show the prompt "FSL DDR>" before enabling the DDR
+controller.  The available commands are printed by typing "help".
+
+Another way to enter the interactive DDR debugger without setting the
+environment variable is to send the 'd' character early during the boot
+process.  To save booting time, no additional delay is added, so the window
+to send the key press is very short -- basically, it is the time before the
+memory controller code starts to run.  For example, when rebooting from
+within U-Boot, the user must press 'd' IMMEDIATELY after hitting enter to
+initiate a 'reset' command.  In case of power on/reset, the user can hold
+down the 'd' key while applying power or hitting the board's reset button.
 
 The example flow of using interactive debugging is
 type command "compute" to calculate the parameters from the default
 type command "print" with arguments to show SPD, options, registers
 type command "edit" with arguments to change any if desired
+type command "copy" with arguments to copy controller/dimm settings
 type command "go" to continue calculation and enable DDR controller
+
+Additional commands to restart the debugging are:
 type command "reset" to reset the board
 type command "recompute" to reload SPD and start over
 
 Note, check "next_step" to show the flow. For example, after edit opts, the
 next_step is STEP_ASSIGN_ADDRESSES. After editing registers, the next_step is
-STEP_PROGRAM_REGS. Upon issuing command "go", DDR controller will be enabled
