It means that something went wrong when you started it up.  Are
you running this from ROM or RAM?

You can get a clue by simply connecting to your board via GDB
and getting a backtrace and register info.  This may give you
an idea why it is failing.

  % arm-elf-gdb -nw redboot.elf
  (gdb) set remotebaud 38400
  (gdb) tar rem /dev/ttyS0
  (gdb) info reg
  (gdb) bt
