Hi!
Does anybody can advice me some bootloader for my Zinfandel(Db1500) board?

CU.

Yamon should be in Flash of that board and start automatically...
If it doesn't start check the DIP Switches on the board for correct 
settings.
(little/big endian, and I think you can switch between the flashes)

Oops! Sorry. :) I mean another bootloader insted YAMON. I need to load 
kernel from flash but not from LAN(tftp and etc). Can YAMON to do that?

Yes, it can!
There are two options, use a kernel simply compiled for ram,
load it via tftp, cp it to an erased flashed area.
then you can start it by copying it to ram and jump to the start address 
inside the kernel.
the second more simple solution is to build a compressed kernel,
flash it e.g. to 0xbfd00000 and then simply go there for start.

Pls refer the Yamon help for any details, you can add a start variable 
to the Yamon
config which is executed after two seconds if you don't stop this with 
Ctrl-c via serial.

(set start 'go 0xbfd00000 root=/dev/mtdblock1' or whatever...)

Yes I did it that way. :) Thanks.
So is there other nice loaders for this board?

I have the same board and I use U-Boot.

It was somewhat difficult to get it working in little endian mode, but
once I did I submitted patches back to U-Boot and it should work fine now.
