Hey Nicolas, In working on my 2.6.37 based merge tree of the linaro and android kernels, I've been seeing a crash or hang at init time on my beagleboard xm.
I reproduced it with your linaro-2.6.37 tree, and I managed to bisect it down to the following commit:
ff8ea0c44f666883ef1e5545c33f858557b02043 ARM: 6384/1: Remove the domain switching on ARMv6k/v7 CPUs
Reverting this patch allows the linaro-2.6.37 kernel to boot on a linaro disk image, and also allows my dev/linaro.android branch to boot using an android disk image.
Is anyone else seeing this issue?
thanks -john
