Paul,

You are using an obsolete u-boot and the "legacy" appended dtb
method. It was my understanding that that way is just a temporary hack
in case the boot loader does not support dtb.

Now that u-boot has the proper support, using the dtb method is the
"offical" boot method, AFAICT. At least, that is what people are
saying on the arm list. So I think that if you want to test whether a
particular board is booting correctly, it is more useful to try the
offical method.

People keep saying, the beaglebone works fine with v3.7-rc1, but it
isn't true. Now v3.7-rc2 is out, and the gpmc issue still has not been
fixed, and no one is doing anything about it either.

When I read your report, it gave me a much rosier picture than is
actually the case WRT the beaglebone.

Thanks,
Richard
