[U-Boot-Users] problem to load uImage but not zImage (onvirtex-4 board)

[Leonid]

Grant is right - kernel command line (defined by u-boot variable
"bootargs") is also very important, though it's difficult to see how
wrong command line can crash printk(). It definitely can prevent serial
output from showing up on console though.

What are you passing for the kernel command line?
Can you post your .config?
