Thank you, I was able to boot the Beaglebone with mainline u-boot by
moving uImage to / and adding this to uEnv.txt:
bootfile="/uImage"
As an aside, I noticed omap3_beagle in board.cfg, so I tried 'make
omap3_beagle_config && make' but the resultant MLO and u-boot.img did
not work at all. am335x_evm_config works fine, but I'm curious what
omap3_beagle_config is for if anyone knows.
