I am not sure this is the right scheme for BBGW using new u-boot.

https://elinux.org/Beagleboard:U-boot_partitioning_layout_2.0 seems to be what 
is now used.

It says "Starting with u-boot: v2014.07/v2014.10/v2015.01 this will be default"

And it says:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boot Partition (omap4+ (am335x))

MLO/u-boot: dd'ed to drive:

dd if=MLO of=/dev/sdX count=1 seek=1 conv=notrunc bs=128k
dd if=u-boot.img of=/dev/sdX count=2 seek=1 conv=notrunc bs=384k

Boot:

xMb fat16/ext2 (unmounted usually shared as a usb gadget)
/uEnv.txt (priority 1) (Optional)
/boot.scr (priority 2) (Optional, For: debian-installer: flash-kernel)
/boot/boot.scr (priority 3) (Optional, For: debian-installer: flash-kernel)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is pretty cryptic but BBGW is using AM335x.

I did make this scheme work to some degree with my yocto build but not 
completely.

If I do get it to work completely I can send instructions.

Or maybe someone else can send instructions or clarifications.

I never had success with BBGW and FAT16 boot partition on sdcard.

I purchased mine in 2018 and immediately updated its software so I think it has 
never had the FAT16 boot partition on it.

Regards,
Dave
