Is there limitation of the kernel size which u-boot loads?
No.
My kernel is very big, because I included the ramdisk into the kernel. My kernel size is over 40MB. When I load the kernel through u-boot, the prcedure hangs in the boot step. The step is "Uncompressing Linux.... done, booting the kernel"
Yeah, I don't know what architecture you are using or the format of your image, but I suspect the problem is with the wrapper or start up code of the image.
There are lots of ways split/format such an image, I'd suggest asking on the architecture specific Linux mailing list.
Thanks.
