yes, that did the trick.
Curiously enough, I did forgot this step. The Lime2 board booted fine but only
500MB of RAM were seen by the kernel.. I guess that RAM setup is performed by
uboot and not by the firmware of the kernel.
Anyway, once uboot for lime2 is installed as you instructed, the card works
fine.

Good idea.
