What's the output of:
    ide part
And also check:
    print bootcmd_sata

Here, I get:

Marvell>> ide part

Partition Map for IDE device 0  --   Partition Type: DOS

Partition     Start Sector     Num Sectors     Type
    1                 2048          497664      83
    2               499712        13672448      83
    3             14174206       474222594       5 Extd
    5             14174208         3014656      82
    6             17190912       471205888      83

So my IDE device is 0 and the boot partition is 1, leading to 0:1

Which I then put in the bootcmd_sata variable:

Marvell>> print bootcmd_sata
bootcmd_sata=ide reset; ext2load ide 0:1 0x1100000 /uInitrd; ext2load ide 0:1 0x0800000 /uImage
                                 ^^^^^^^                              ^^^^^^^
