That was some issue on my laptop. Trying on another laptop worked.
I generated final image with kernel.AP91.lzma.uImage inside it instead of
plain kernel.gz
This is what I am getting now (instead of "bad magic number"):
U-Boot 1.1.4.2-s594 (Dec 5 2012 - 15:23:07)
Board: Ubiquiti Networks XM board (rev 1.0 e302)
DRAM: 32 MB
Flash: 8 MB
PCIe WLAN Module found (#1).
Net: eth0, eth1
Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0
## Booting image at 9f050000 ...
Image Name: FreeBSD
Created: 2013-08-24 15:28:06 UTC
Image Type: MIPS Linux Kernel Image (lzma compressed)
Data Size: 131085 Bytes = 128 kB
Load Address: 80050000
Entry Point: 80050100
Verifying Checksum ... OK
Uncompressing Kernel Image ... ERROR, LzmaDecode.c, 332
Decoding error = 1
LZMA ERROR 1 - must RESET board to recover
Resetting...
Trying to figure out what this means.
I _think_ we are real close in making this work :-)
cheers,
