Hummingboard u-boot not loading?

Well I have seen what I think is ubldr get loaded by u-boot. I see the
following message:

20647 bytes read in 26 ms (9.6MiB/s)

And then nothing. I am hoping this mean ubldr successfully loaded. The
lack of the rest of the output seems to make me think, well, I don't
know what to think. Is the output going to the serial console I don't
currently have? Just because it read the file doesn't mean that
bootelf worked? I don't have anything in a loader.conf file yet so
that may also be the problem.

Ian, thanks for chiming in. I want to keep going with the binary that
Gonzo gave me but I will look back at the pkgng image once I get a
full boot happening.

As usual, all suggestions welcome.

Thanks,
Russ
