Actually, there's a fix for this very annoying issue:
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2015-June/216852.html
It's working just fine (1.4 MiB/s), but I haven't tested it thoroughly.
I'm currently trying to get it to build in my OBS project
to have a proper RPM, but OBS is pretty busy ATM.

To get some kernel output, append "console=tty0" to the bootargs line
in /boot/boot.script and use mkimage to generate the boot.scr file
for u-boot. Or just use the serial port, the serial console is active by 
default.

Also, make sure that an initrd exists at all, one image I downloaded had
a broken initrd symlink.

Best of luck,
Fabian
