#13 boot halts on 1.5.2.3-1 (Compact Flash drive)

[Vasile Brindus]

It doesn't boot with my CF, again :(. This time is not a initrc issue (I renamed it and still doesn't boot). It shows the logo, then displays mediabackground.jpg and halts. In this state, it's not accessible via telnet or ftp. It responds to power-off button, so it's not totally dead.

It boots OK without CF. It also boots OK with a real HDD.

Other issues:
- initrc doesn't get executed.
- url files are shown in the list (Playlist mode) but don't get played. No error message.
- url files in Music mode are played if the content points to a remote m3u file (great!!!). They are not played if the content points to a remote mp3 file ("Cannot playback file. Video/Audio format not supported").

mp3 or m3u or pls?
m3u/pls work for me (other than the stack issue)

CF boot still doesn't work. Any chance of adding some logging into sashrc? I was thinking of some echo lines to /var/boot.log. They're not very useful for this case, since I'm pretty sure the problem is somewhere in dvdplayer (telnetd not loaded) but it can get some use later.
