I'm sorry, but I never used a MBX board with PPCBoot or U-Boot
myself, so my experience is limited.

There are two obvious errors here:
First, U-Boot must start at offset 0, not 0x100; I don't know if
FC000100 is the correct address - if the "FC" prefix is correct (*)
then you must program the image to FC000000, not FC000100.
(*) The U-Boot configuration for the MBX-Board sets TEXT_BASE =
0xFE000000 so please double-check your address.
Second, the image size of >500 kB is wrong. You must flash the
"u-boot.bin" image, which should be in the 120..130 kB range.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

Hi,
I have compiled u-boot for mbx860, created uImage (using the sources from
denx site) but have
a problem when I try to run the uImge on the board, follows what I get:

My guess would be RAM unitisation is not correct in U-boot. What
configuration is your MBX board? If you transfer the kernel image into two
separate locations on your board and do a memory compare are both images the
same. If you download the image back to the PC and do another memory
compare are the images still the same?
This is where I would start.
Regards,
Rod Boyce.

Compressed size is 800+ kB, so uncompressed size will be around 2+ MB.

You load the image at 0x20000 = 128 kB. It will overwrite itself when
it starts to uncompress and load the kernel.
Use a higher download address, like 0x200000.
