Not quite.  The HRCW at fe000000 must indicate that you want to boot from fe000000 
(actually, fe000100).  To do that, configure U-Boot with "make MPC8349ITX_LOWBOOT_config" 
and flash that u-boot.bin at fe000000.

Your HRCW is 04040000 b060a000, which means lowboot.  You must have something overriding 
your HRCW.  How is J22 jumpered?
