The examples are broken for AT91SAM9261 also, and I have a patch for
it attached.
Notice that this patch is only for at91sam9261ek, not for
at91sam9263ek, but if you look at it you should know what to do for
your board.

Notice that there is no memory on address 0x40000 so you can try to
load a program there and start to run it, but obviously it will not
work :-))
U-boot itself is stored at 0x20000000 (beginning of memory) and I
start the examples from address 0x21400000.

NOTE: This patch is not meant for mainlining yet, just to help you on
the short term. (I think I have to solve it more cleanly/generic for
the AT91 series)


Kind Regards,

Remy
