[Gumstix-users] stuck in boot cycle on XL6P

[Sukandar K. <kar...@go...>]

Hi,I've just received my new XL6P and after uploading a new filesystem and
kernel I am stuck in an endless boot cycle.

The last line it prints before it resets itself is:
io scheduler cfq registered (default)

The first line after reset is:
U-Boot 1.2.0 (Dec 21 2007 - 13:37:16)  - PXA270@600 MHz - 1578M

The following lines confirm that there's a new kernel at work and I can't
see any obvious error messages this.
It doesn't matter if I do a cold-start or a warm-start after the upload.

My expansion board is a GPSstix (with Audiostix II printed on it...), and
I'm currently connecting thru the FFUART via kermit.

I tried uploading the filesystem via a4000000 instead of a2000000, but that
didn't make a difference.


Some background:
Up to now I've been working with an XM4-bt, buildroot version 1559.
When I received the new modules I noticed that they had a newer version
running, using the new OpenEmbedded environment. I quickly tried if i could
get my stuff running by repeating all steps from the old board, but no such
luck. So I suppose OE is all nice and fine, but I didn't want to get
involved in too much new stuff just then, so I decided to upload the old
buildroot (of course after reconfiguring/rebuilding for the faster CPU).


thanks in advance,
Sukandar
