Which version of U-Boot is this?
0.4.1
Are you sure the image is still OK?
My target mounts root filesystem over NFS. So running on my host system "mkimage -l /mnt/pImage" works:
Target:
bash-2.05# mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock1 /mnt/ bash-2.05# cd /mnt/ bash-2.05# ll total 514 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 525815 Jul 22 13:31 pImage bash-2.05# cp pImage /pImage
Host:

With the same image "tftpboot" works fine.
->tftp 100000 pImage TFTP from server 172.22.20.193; our IP address is 172.22.10.33 Filename 'pImage'.

So I am sure that my image file is OK, I suppose something goes wrong in "fsload", when pImage will copied to memory.
