Yeah, get:

For selecting the bootmode during usb downloader on linux.
Just run imx_tui, and then select fastboot.

I guess you already have that.

Look at the original debricking thread. You will find links to download ssh+diags, main and both kernel images. Get them down and then flash diags kernel and ssh+diags. Then go N)->U)->Z)->X) in diags, wait 20 seconds and:

sudo ifconfig usb0 192.168.15.1 or something like that, then
ssh root@192.168.15.244
password: mario

Its all documented. You might want to transfer the pubdevkey.pem (search the forum) to your usb storage , and assuming you know your linux stuff, the usb drive is mounted at /mnt/us. Mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 at /dev/mmc, then move the pubdevkey.pem to /mnt/mmc/etc/uks.


Or just use kubrick if you're feeling :
