Had the same problem with garbage, apparently a rounding problem in the baudrate calculation. The above patch shows the changes suggested by someone on the net, can't remember his name but it is on the patches page of sourceforge.net. After application of this it worked fine. One gotcha, hardware handshake off on your terminal software! U-Boot wants it off, The motorola DBUG wants it on, this kept me busy for a day.

I can figure out some characters that look familiar (like the countdown for the autostart) so I assume it's working correctly but doesn't get displayed right. I also can't interrupt the countdown so input doesn't work. Already tried to change the 115200 8N1 settings of the communications (but why would they change anyway..) and didn't help.
