I've just tried booting the wheezy installer from ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy/main/installer-armel/current/images/kirkwood/netboot/marvell/dreamplug/ with "U-Boot 2012.04.01 (Jun 01 2012 - 02:17:08)" which is the u-boot from the Wheezy u-boot package u-boot_2012.04.01-2_armel.deb and it works for me (log at the end). I've asked you a couple of times now for the exact images you are using and you've given inexact answers each time (e.g. "wheezy" which doesn't tell me what I need to know), so I don't know if this matches what you are using or not. I think if you want further help you are going to need to provide details, including the actual logs of what you typed in u-boot, what the output was etc. Ian.
