Could be, don't know which ones he copied for you, but it should
probably be from natty.

Yeah, sorry, my brain was confused by the time I commented at this bug :-)
Exactly, if you run 'dpkg -X <package> .' you should have the files
you need, like:
./usr/lib/u-boot/omap3_beagle/u-boot.bin
and
./usr/lib/x-loader/omap3530beagle/MLO
In case you're not able to get anything from your serial, as you
reported with paolo's binaries, you may need to recreate your first
partition filesystem.
For that just mount it at your host, copy all the files from the first
partition, create a new vfat fs (mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/sdX1), mount it
again and copy all the files back, copying the MLO first.
Please give it a try and let me know if it works for you.

Exactly, if you run 'dpkg -X <package> .' you should have the files u-boot/ omap3_beagle/ u-boot. bin x-loader/ omap3530beagle/ MLO
you need, like:
./usr/lib/
and
