Becasue I'm using still old U-Boot: U-Boot 1.1.4 (Jun 8 2011 - 18:48:37) Marvell version: 3.4.19 it is need to append FDT:
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x00008000 -e 0x00008000 -n Linux-5.8.3-kirkwood-tld-1 -d /boot/dts-5.8.3/kirkwood-nsa310.dtb ./uImage-5.8.3 mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x00000000 -e 0x00000000 -n initramfs-5.8.3-kirkwood-tld-1 -d ./initrd.img-5.8.3-kirkwood-tld-1 ./uInitrd-5.8.3
Image Name: Linux-5.8.3-kirkwood-tld-1 Created: Sun Nov 1 17:53:32 2020 Image Type: ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed) Data Size: 12568 Bytes = 12.27 kB = 0.01 MB Load Address: 00008000 Entry Point: 00008000 Image Name: initramfs-5.8.3-kirkwood-tld-1 Created: Sun Nov 1 17:53:32 2020 Image Type: ARM Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 10037699 Bytes = 9802.44 kB = 9.57 MB Load Address: 00000000 Entry Point: 00000000
And configure U-Boot to boot form new image:
fw_setenv load_ide_58 'ide reset; ext2load ide 0:3 0x800000 /uImage-5.8.3; ext2load ide 0:3 0x1100000 /uInitrd-5.8.3;' fw_setenv bootcmd_ide_58 'run load_ide_58; bootm 0x800000 0x1100000;' fw_setenv bootcmd 'run load_ide_58; bootm 0x800000 0x1100000;'
