If you are running one of the first u-boot's provided by Genesi, you might need to upgrade it, but most likely it is not your case. The initrd and uimage found in the mirrors work up to installing the kernel, provided you have serial console connection. The kernel is mainline 3.2 and at that time there was not much support, iirc, just enough to get you a serial and read PATA disks, no HDMI (for that you need Genesi provided kernel, was it 2.6.31?) On the good news, mainline support has improved a lot and people is building 3.9 mainline kernels, but those still need a bit of polishing, once that is sorted out, it won't take long to get better support in jessie.
