Yes, same kernel tree and I set the bootargs before. But I think it was my
bad, it's not an u-boot problem as I tested on beaglebone and works.

The difference between the two cases I tested are the address. The one that
doesn't work using zImage and works with uImage is

    dtbaddr=0x81600000
    loadaddr=0x80000000

If I change the addresses like the used in beaglebone, then works

    dtbaddr=0x80200000
    loadaddr=0x80F80000

I need to check exactly what is thge problem with these addresses. Anyway
it's not an u-boot problem. Thanks for the support.


Best regards,
    Enric
