Alternately it could load a combined kernel+initramfs image from the ~6 MB 'filesystem' partition, if the initramfs size is likely to say under ~4 MB. Upstream u-boot still doesn't support this model and doesn't appear to have a driver for the S29GL-M MirrorBit flash. I think it may just be a case of adding the right ID numbers and block sizes to the existing Spansion SPI flash driver, though. I have a datasheet for the flash chip, if anyone's interested.
