Dear Andreas Bießmann,

sorry I didn't want do this. I wanted to give some more information.

yes I. I tried to make a patch for 2010.12 but the uboot don't starts so 
I tried in the first step the version before. It is a similar board to 
the at91rm9200dk. It hangs in the low level_init file. But I have only a 
keil jtag debugger and couldn't debug it. or is there any possibility to 
use it with the gdb?

I found the problem in the board.c of the arm architecture. But can't 
see why. Line 303 is reached but line 312 not. Also line 306 is not 
reached. I don't know why, maybe you can give me a hint?

I think if the problem is found the problem with the at91rm9200dk is 
also found.

I only give the MAC and the running image in the cmdline. I think the 
problem must be in the uboot.

It isn't in official u-boot tree. You can have a look in the patch.
