I once had BB white and it was then possible to netboot it. Currently
I'm netbooting other boards with following U-Boot environment:

cat > /boot/uEnv.txt << EOF
serverip=192.168.1.8
ipaddr=192.168.1.99
kernel=am3517/netbsd.gz.ub
uenvcmd=sleep 2; tftpboot \${loadaddr} \${kernel}; bootm \${loadaddr} root=ld0a
EOF

The SD card image is following:
