u-boot v2016.03 working for anyone?

Hi,

I have two boards - a de0_nano_soc and a sockit. Neither works with a u-boot v2016.03 build.

Is anybody out there using these eval boards able to successfully build & run u-boot?

On both cards, the u-boot-with-spl.sfp (includes SPL, uboot.img, dtb all in one) I generate either

doesn't boot at all, or boots sporadically, failing on memory calibration.

Here is one example:

U-Boot SPL 2016.03 (Mar 16 2016 - 08:27:20)

drivers/ddr/altera/sequencer.c: Preparing to start memory calibration

drivers/ddr/altera/sequencer.c: CALIBRATION FAILED

drivers/ddr/altera/sequencer.c: Calibration complete

SDRAM calibration failed.

### ERROR# ## Please RESET the board# ##

drivers/ddr/altera/sequencer.c: Calibration complete

SDRAM calibration failed.

### ERROR# ## Please RESET the board# ##
