I'll see if I can remember which bit of uboot code does boot.scr - and if bohdi has compiled it.

For the arch arm uboot - we didn't have that option, as our uboot was IIRC too old. Thats why we use uEnv ...

Ah yes - this is what describes boot.scr: https://gitlab.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/blob/master/doc/README.distro

Usually it would be this file https://github.com/mibodhi/u-boot-kirkwood/blob/2017.07-kirkwood-tld-1/include/configs/nsa325.h that includes config_distro_bootcmd.h - and as Bohdi include file doesn't mention this, my guess is that his uboot also does not do distro / boot.scr support.

And https://github.com/mibodhi/u-boot-kirkwood/blob/2017.07-kirkwood-tld-1/configs/nsa325_defconfig needs to contain "CONFIG_DISTRO_DEFAULTS=y" which is doesn't ...

Sorry about that ...
