> Hm, very strange.  Looking up the code, the '1' is the image type
> contained in the uImage header.  It is defined to be OpenBSD in
> include/image.h and if your U-Boot doesn't have support for that, you
> will get that message.  This however doesn't make sense to have an
> uImage with this type.
