I guess this means that the SPL doesn't find its non-SPL, proper u-boot binary counterpart. I'd say the most likely culprit is that the SPL can't find the SD card, but it could be anything. If you'd like to debug this down further, get yourself a copy of the u-boot sources using osc $ osc bco Base:System u-boot then extract them $ quilt setup u-boot-cubieboard.spec $ cd <foo> $ quilt push -a and compile u-boot manually. Try to add printfs at strategic places where SPL tries to find the real uboot binary. To put the compiled SPL back onto your SD card, you can find the respective command in the JeOS package: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory:ARM/JeOS/uboot-image-install.in?expand=1 Also before you dig into any of this, I'd recommend to try out a Factory image first.
