You need both a valid root file system and kernel on your roach for the "soloboot" macro to bring up your system. The "run tftproot" programs a new file system, but it seems that the kernel image isn't correct, so that must have been managled somehow (possibly with a "run tftpkernel"). So try to update your kernel. Also: don't try updating uboot until you are a lot more comfortable with the entire thing, recovering from a failed uboot update is a lot harder. But you may have an imls command, it might tell you if it can find a valid kernel on flash.
