I've done a 'make uImage' with the latest git tree. You can also grab the resultant uImage from ftp://hilman.org/omap730/uImage-2.6.16-rc5-omap1 to test on your board. You might try updating your u-boot. The version on my board (rev4) is 1.1.4. There should be a newer u-boot available on linux.omap.com (which is currently down.) Kevin
