Yes, i have a working 3.0. kernel and ramdisk.img
it is an android image.

Linux version 3.0.15 (root at yicsystem) (gcc version 4.4.3 (GCC) ) #1 SMP
PREEMPT Thu Apr 25 14:28:59 KST 2013

> kernel command line

# cat /proc/cmdline
console=ttySAC1,115200n8 vmalloc=512M androidboot.console=ttySAC1

i built a kernel with same string.

u-boot based on U-Boot 2012.12-00000-g462762b-dirty with yse5250 platform
changes


And i tried a mainline u-boot and it's does not working.
Just an empty screen on terminal window.
