Because of the horrible situation of u-boot not being included with non imx boards it is included in the miniroot images.
This however makes the miniroot images board specific in most cases. It seems like that particular miniroot would be better labeled a10/sun4i or even just cubieboard. If you can manually load a ramdisk kernel via tftp or mmc you'll have more luck. The a20 boards apparently have various issues with OpenBSD and on your particular one the 'gmac' Ethernet is not yet supported.
