Please note that PPCBoot is a dead project. You are wasting your
time. Please use the successor project U-Boot instead.

Works fine on many boards.

As it should. "go" is not the command used to boot a Linux kernel
image.

It's a two-step procedure.
The first step is reading the documentation, i. e. especially the
README and then the DULG - see
http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/Manual
The second step is using "make uImage" in you kernel tree (or "make
pImage" if the new alias is still not there).
Finally, please note that this is off topic here. Please send such
requests to the u-boot-users mailing list instead.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
