That might well have something to do with the difference in operation.

You objective at this point is the same as before - get the SoC to run its own external RAM.

Check the thread posted by the person who replaced their eMMC with a larger one to see what they had to do at this point (the previous error messages are probably why the SoC's code can't start the external RAM).
See how the other thread fixed those at this point.
I didn't notice the different uboot dates, thanks for pointing that out.

Just to check I understood correctly SoC = "System On Chip" did I get that right? I will read up on that if so, all very new for me but interested to learn

I'll go look for the thread you mentioned, thanks for the pointer.

P.S. I also looked up eMMC = "embedded Multi-Media Controller" basically flash memory with a controller built in. (I'm leaving this here to remind me if I come back to this thread later and also for any other noobs reading this...!)
