Well, it would have been helpful if you had told us which board you are talking about. Some processors have a fixed reset vector address at 0xFFFFFFFC, so the U-Boot image has to include that address, i. e. it covers the full range from the start address to the end of the 32 bit address space. In such a case, the start address must be changed - check the setting of TEXT_BASE in your board/<name>/config.mk file.
