[U-Boot] installing u-boot on a virtual x86 machine

I'm Francesco Lucconi from Italy, and I'm involved into a x86 project where
my issue is to compile a u-boot (I'm currently using uboot-2015.01) and to
install it into a VID (virtual image disk) of virtualbox.


I've already tuned the MBR, registering two FAT16 partitions, one for
u-boot and the other one for future kernel uImage and firmware development.
In this moment I figured out that I've installed correctly the MBR cause I
can see on the display strings I've applied on the MBR source code but it
seems that u-boot.bin code doesn't run correctly, the system hangs out....
Could you give me any tips I didn't notice before?
