loady (ymodem load) and friends are built-in commands of the 'bist' u-boot.

ymodem did not used to work, but they must have fixed it sometime after the K5.

It looks like OP ran the 'loady' command from the main uboot though:

uboot > iminfo
On my PW3, when I issue the bist command, the prompt changes from 'uboot >' to 'bist >'

Mybe that's just a version thing.

Ah, here it is, this is definitely not the uboot I have on my device, last time I checked.

Maybe they have updated the viersion officially, or maybe he had built it form source or got it form some of the other posts here.
