u-boot

The icy-box has a outdated u-boot as bootloader. You need to flash an up to date version. (IPFire image ship a working image in /usr/share/u-boot)

After flashing you need to add a basic config environment:

boot_dev=ide
boot_part=0:1
bootcmd=${boot_dev} reset; fatload ${boot_dev} ${boot_part} 0x8000000 boot.scr; source 0x8000000;
bootdelay=3
