*loaduimage=load usb ${bootpart} 0x80200000 /boot/uImage* This above is wrong. First you need to understand what a linux mage is.
i386 william@debian-can:~/can-dev/ipc-server$ ls /boot/ config-3.2.0-4-486 initrd.img-3.2.0-4-486 *vmlinuz-3.2.0-4-486* grub System.map-3.2.0-4-486 The above is for an i386 / x86 PC No idea what image you have on your BBB, but on two of mine . . . debian@beaglebone:~$ ls /boot/uboot/ App Docs ID.txt MLO scripts u-boot.img *zImage* autorun.inf Drivers initrd.img README.htm SOC.sh uEnv.txt debug dtbs LICENSE.txt README.md START.htm uInitrd william@xanbustester:~$ ls /boot/uboot/ MLO config-4.2.0-rc4-bone2 u-boot.img uEnv.txt.bak zImage System.map-4.2.0-rc4-bone2 dtbs uEnv.txt v *mlinuz-4.2.0-rc4-bone2* Anyway, starting to see my point ? You need to know what a kernel image is, and how to spot it. Then that is what loadimage= needs to point to.
