ums <dev> [<interface>] <devnum[:partnum]>
Use the USB Mass Storage class (also known as UMS) to make accessible an U-Boot block device (fully or with :ref:`U-Boot's partition syntax <partitions>`) to a USB host and to enable file transfers. U-Boot, the USB device, acts as a simple external hard drive plugged on the host USB port.
This command "ums" stays in the USB's treatment loop until user enters Ctrl-C.
