Do all of the above, then when you make your configuration, use the 
PQ2FADS-ZU_lowboot_config:
$ make PQ2FADS-ZU_lowboot_config

Look at the top level Makefile to see what it is doing, it is putting 
some customizing stuff in the include/config.h file (make the 
configuration and then look in the config.h file).

You need to switch a jumper J7 to short pins 1-2 (default is 2-3) to 
switch from fetching the HRCW from the BCSR register to fetching the 
HRCW from flash.

DON'T erase the high boot version of u-boot - by switching the jumper J7 
back, you can recover from loading a bad u-boot in the lowboot position 
by reloading a good lowboot u-boot.  DAMHIKT.
