No, not at all. "Reset run" just skips all the statements in  the  init
section of the BDI2000 config file. It seems that one of more of them
are  vital  for  successfully  booting U-Boot on your board, and that
these are missing / different in your port of U-Boot.

I really cannot follow you why you think this has anything to do with
the SDRAM initialization; it can  be  any  other  part  of  the  init
sequence as well. Check your init section in the BDI config file, and
remove it step by step, and you will soon see what's missing / wrong.
