Thanks, this first part is what I was looking for.

Not sure why DEBUG would make it hang on master.  I don't know much
about spl, but is there a way you can get it to just do 'ls mmc 1:1'
instead of loading u-boot.img?  ls should give me the same information
about the partition, without so many repeating entries/offsets.
Alternately, is it possible to boot w/ old spl image but new
u-boot.img to debug this once we get into main u-boot image??

BR,
