Angelo, Some people gave his ACK, because it was booting. and also i kept it since some framebuffer tests in my 3430SDP passed (i.e. it was showing the intended data.) However, didn't show the Tux during bootup. Isn't the same case as you? Anyways, Thanks for sharing your results... I'll rework this patch and resend once i'm done.
