I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Tell us all the steps you followed to create, and run, the image. Word for word. Letter for letter. Keystroke for keystroke. Whenever you post a question without doing this you're wasting your time.
We don't know what went wrong given that minimal information. Bootloaders are bad for this -- their tiny little brains can't cough up more than a general "it doesn't work" kind of error message when things aren't precisely as they expected, and that's best case. Worst case they just freeze and tell you nothing.
We are not mind readers. We don't even know what you did yet, let alone how to fix it...
