Somebody in the thread at some point said:

| sudo make
CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/local/openmoko/arm/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-

You don't need to do this as root.

...
| Image Type:   ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)

uncompressed is good anyway

| Data Size:    1769300 Bytes = 1727.83 kB = 1.69 MB
| Load Address: 0x30008000
| Entry Point:  0x30008000
|   Image arch/arm/boot/uImage is ready

We call it uImage.bin, that is what the canned U-Boot menu scripts expect.

Can you show the text around this "bad magic number" report?  A few
different things have magic numbers.

You are not using the shipped 512MB SD Card.  Do things work better if
you do?
