Thanks for your reply. As suggested, I have downloaded version 2009.08 and
built it like this (please tell me if thats correct)

# make at91sam9263ek_config
... with environment variable in SPI DATAFLASH CS0
Configuring for at91sam9263ek board...
# make all CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-

I do have u-boot.bin now. My next questions are:
1. Can I just rename it boot.bin and put it in the root folder of SD card
and try to use it on the board? I am confused by the message after make
at91sam9263ek_config command. Does it mean it can be used only with
Dataflash card or I can use it in SD card too.

2. I am using bootstrap from Atmel's
http://www.at91.com/linux4sam/bin/view/Linux4SAM/AT91Bootstrap . The
bootstraps are only available for DataFlash and Nand Flash. Please advise,
which bootstrap do I use to have bootstrap and U-boot on SD Card only.

Thanks for your help, friends.
