Nice catch. If we're at it, while fixing it, maybe we would finally merge kerio's patch, allowing to make u-boot menu without "attached kernel" boot option?
Sure it's not big deal, but having non-working u-boot entry is still a little irritating for people, that doesn't attach kernels to u-boot (as there is no real reason to do so - after loading, kernel sits in memory, anyway).
BTW, I wonder, if u-boot without kernel attached shouldn't become default method. After all, multiboot was railed for NAND-saving reasons... Having only u-boot flashed to NAND saves it from wear too, as there is no need to reflash it with your favorite kernel-attached- everytime new version of kernel appears (you only need to flash if/when new version of u-boot appears, which happen much less frequently than new version of kernel[s]).
