[U-Boot] UBIFS fails on SheevaPlug

[Dimax]

HI,
So you say I have to rebuild u-boot with expanded CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN.
So far I have used rebuild images from:
http://people.debian.org/~tbm/u-boot/2011.12-3/sheevaplug/u-boot.kwb

I see following files in the parrent directory:

[image: [   ]] u-boot_2012.04.01-2.debian.tar.gz
<http://people.debian.org/%7Etbm/u-boot/2012.04.01-2/u-boot_2012.04.01-2.debian.tar.gz>[image:
[   ]] u-boot_2012.04.01-2_armel.deb
<http://people.debian.org/%7Etbm/u-boot/2012.04.01-2/u-boot_2012.04.01-2_armel.deb>[image:
[   ]] u-boot_2012.04.01.orig.tar.bz2
<http://people.debian.org/%7Etbm/u-boot/2012.04.01-2/u-boot_2012.04.01.orig.tar.bz2>

Is it all I need to rebuild?
Are there any general instructions?
