Your version of U-Boot is pretty old, and you are still using X-Loader instead of SPL - these are too many old components to spend efforts in analyzing potential problems.

Without compression errors don't get caought so easily. I bet they are still there. ... > Contents: > Image 0: 2585928 Bytes = 2.5 MiB > Image 1: 13631488 Bytes = 13 MiB > Verifying Checksum ... OK As you can see, it _does_ checksum verification. > [ 0.000000] Linux version 3.2.0 (anthony@linux-server) (gcc version 4.3.3 > (GCC) ) #1 Thu Jun 28 16:13:37 CDT 2012 Uh, oh. GCC 4.3 - can you _please_ try a more recent and less buggy tool chain? Recent kernel versions and ancient tools usually don't mix without problems. > [ 8.032104] alignment: ignoring faults is unsafe on this CPU. > Defaulting to fixup mode. > Remounting root file system... > WARNING: -e needs -E or -F > Segmentation fault Alignments issues ?
