For the newer kernels, you'll definitely want root=1f01

You may want to try re-downloading, now that the env is right. If you
ever managed to get the kernel to partially bootup with the wrong
stuff it could have corrupted stuff (jffs2 rewrites blocks that appear
to be bad).

If that still doesn't work, then send us the entire boot log, right
from the beginning of u-boot to the error in the kernel.
