The code is fairly simple to follow. I barely have internet access here and in any case I don't know what's in that uImage file, so I suggest compiling supermin yourself, running the command by hand, and adding printf's to src/<a href="http://kernel.ml" target="_blank">kernel.ml</a> in supermin to find the problem.
