Hi Kyle, 

what you mean is u-boot.bin from sysutils, but there’s a lot more to copy -
with me it began to work flawlessly with the other files from RPI-foundation  .. 
I’ll write something for the public in the forums tonight when I’m back from the office ..
Last SD-card I prepared is approx. 1 week ago, so of course some things might have been changed 
in src head...

Thanks
