The kernel version is actually totally uninteresting here. What
matters is what U-Boot version you have. Let me guess - it is some
v2009.x - i. e. 5 year old stuff?

It is best to take current code (top of tree in git repository) and
port it to your hardware from scratch. You can use your old code as
reference, for example how to set up pin muxing and such. Otherwise
it is pretty much worthless.
Best regards,

The ideal situation is to have massive computing power right at home.
Something that dims the streetlights and shrinks the picture on the
neighbours' TVs when you boot it up.
