Re: [Gumstix-users] Built images not booting on Gumstix (Boot hangs at "Uncompressing linux...")

[Nerd C. <ner...@ya...>]

I had submitted the boot log to the list; however, it is still awaiting approval due to its length.

As an update, I enabled the DEBUG_LL and EARLY_PRINTK in the config to get a more detailed log after the hang/dump. Here is what I get:

HS USB OTG: no transceiver configured
musb_hdrc: musb_init_controller failed with status -19
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000028
[...]
It prints a stack trace, then reports a kernel panic. (Kernel panic - not syncing:Attempted to kill init!)

I've tracked down this error to the musb_core.c 
(http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/usb/musb/musb_core.c?v=2.6.29;a=arm#L1937) and omap2430.c files 
(http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/usb/musb/omap2430.c?v=2.6.33;a=arm#L203) (the latter is the clock(?) that the Overo Fire uses, I imagine?), and 
it looks like it needs some sort of external transceiver? Oddly enough, 
the error I am seeing is not defined for the 2.6.29 kernel. I only found it in the kernels >=2.6.33.

Does this information point to any specific problem I should address?

Thanks.

Sorry it's not much of a help, but can you share the boot log? And perhaps even the rootfs and the uImage? I will give it a try on my Overo.
