Pawel's on holiday this week. I'm no expert in this area, but I ran your question past one of our platform guys. Does the following help?
Thanks for helping :)
A "reboot" causes the motherboard micro to reset and do all its stuff like reprogramming the FPGA and then reset the core which then runs boot monitor.
Briefly hit the red push button on the back panel (the one next to the sdcard slot) to have the motherboard micro issue a "reset" to the ARM core. This will just start Boot Monitor again.
I tried that earlier, but my board just hangs. Doesn't start BIOS or bootmon. Whereas, running reboot from Linux does reboot it properly.
Just tried it, and that's how my TC2 behaves as well. Whereas on A9 it does reset the CoreTile CPU and the bootmonitor runs again.
I should also note that even when booting from the motherboard bootloader by typing "reboot" that my TC2 has a 50/50 chance of hanging at the stage just before the bootmonitor banner should appear.
