Hi,

I am trying the latest git u-boot, kernel and dtc on the Lite5200.

The kernel was compiled with Lite5200_defconfig and the resulting 
uImage copied to /tftpboot/lite/uImage

To compile the .dts I used:
dtc -b 0 -V 17 -p 0x1000 -I dts -O dtb -f 
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/lite5200.dts > /tftpboot/lite/lite5200.dtb

Using the new U-Boot 2008.10-00264-g9b827cf-dirty (Nov 22 2008 - 
23:27:27):

=>tftp 300000 lite/lite5200.dtb
=>tftp 400000 lite/uImage
=>setenv bootargs console=ttyPSC0,115200 root=/dev/nfs rw 
nfsroot=192.168.1.101:/opt/eldk/ppc_82xx 
ip=192.168.1.10:192.168.1.101:192.168.1.254:255.255.255.0:lite:eth0:off 
panic=1
=> bootm 400000 - 300000
## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 00400000 ...
   Image Name:   Linux-2.6.27-01163-g809d437

   Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
   Data Size:    1445022 Bytes =  1.4 MB

## Flattened Device Tree blob at 00300000
   Booting using the fdt blob at 0x300000
   Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK

And that is the last I see from the Lite5200. I have checked the NFS 
mount using the old kernel.
