Might be that some other processors need some special header/image format for
U-Boot to get loaded correctly. But I' very sure that the PPC405GP(r) doesn't
need this. This CPU just needs the u-boot.bin file programmed at the correct
location. And this is the end of the FLASH, so that it can fetch its reset
vector from address 0xfffffffc.
Best regards,
Stefan
