It doesn't work on mine--in fact, it bricks it--but this may be a
documentation bug.
I'm sorry that you have bricked your device...
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/12492
Short version: the wiki says
http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/seagate/dockstar
nand write.e 0x80 0x00 0x4
which really does not sound right, since u-boot is 0x594c8 bytes long. What
is the procedure for flashing the new uboot as primary, and is it intended to
work as a secondary?
It won't work as secondary, you must use it as primary.
This is how I flash it on my kirkwood boards:
tftpboot 0x080 u-boot.kwb
nand erase 0x0 0x${filesize}
nand write 0x080 0x0 0x${filesize}
There's also both .img and .kwb files. I'm not sure what the difference is.
(Since I've got original dockstars, I won't be serial booting the .kwb
apparently :-)
You only need .kwb file. Do you have JTAG adapter?

Board owners please test this patch and give feedback for the boards:

ACK. Works on the iConnect.
Just lost the environment as it isn't stored in an separate mtd partition and I
did mtd erase u-boot ... :/
Having u-boot and u-boot-env separate would make it easier and also reduce the
risks involved when dealing with either one of them.
Besides that, we should have the resulting .kwb image aligned with the NAND
pages, otherwise flashing it results in:
nand_do_write_ops: attempt to write non page aligned data
Error writing image.
So it would be nice to have the partition layout in-sync with what we got in the
kernel.

Unless you want to use ubi/ubifs to load the kernel, which I do want to use,
especially on large NAND (like the one of the iConnect, which already got 3
bad-blocks when it left the factory -- a well-known common phenomena on big NAND
chips and the reason why we got UBI)
See the whole uboot-environment to illustrate what I mean:
iconnect = printenv
baudrate=115200
bootargs_root=noinitrd ubi.mtd=2 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs
bootcmd=setenv bootargs ${console} ${mtdparts} ${bootargs_root}; ubi part
rootfs; ubifsmount rootfs; ubifsload 0x80 ${kernel}; bootm 0x80
bootdelay=3
console=console=ttyS0,115200
ethact=egiga0
kernel=/boot/uImage
mtdids=nand0=orion_nand
mtdparts=mtdparts=orion_nand:0x8@0x0(uboot),0x2@0x8(uboot_env),-@0xa(rootfs)
stderr=serial
stdin=serial
stdout=serial
So the kernel uImage is loaded from inside the filesystem, similar to GRUB
loading vmlinuz from an ext3 partition on x86.
Besides that, given that one might want to update u-boot itself or use
fw_printenv from inside OpenWrt, it makes sense to have the uboot/uboot-env
partitions in-sync.
Maybe even the opposite is true:
The kernel shouldn't have mtd-partitions built-in but rather rely on the cmdline
(like the way it works now on ar71xx; you can still have a patched built-in
cmdline, if needed)
