No I just compiled it and booted and it just works...

Yeah actually I just put U-Boot compressed with lzma first in the big
image I flash to the NAND. The CFE boot will just take the first
lzma image it finds, uncompress and execute it...

Then U-Boot can read the whole kernel from the NAND and execute
it.

My current problem is that there are random ECC errors for some
reason, while it seems the image still comes across fully intact...
