It can mean quite a lot of things, including some horrible death of the kernel in very early stages of its initialization, but the most probable cause is that the kernel doesn't have a console to display messages to, as "booting the kernel" is the last message u-boot displays; whatever appears after that is from the kernel.
Hello! Ekhm...I am the person who mailed you yesterday about uBoot :). I successfully flashed the Lacie - I mean that now it recognises the flash. I am able to save environment variables, but it hangs after the message I previously wrote.
What are the complete parameters that you pass the kernel? Is it configured to use the same physical console as u-boot uses?
I have already tried: setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda7 rw setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda7 ro setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200
//on sda7 I have Debian
combining with loading the kernel via these commands:
setenv serverip 192.168.0.46; setenv ipaddr 192.168.0.80; tftp 400000 sda6
//sda6 is raw image of original Lacie's uImage
