I also have a mx6q sabresd board here, but the error did not happen when I use a recent U-Boot version. I would like to use the same U-Boot version here as well to help debugging this problem. Could you please let me know which 2009.08 branch you used? Is it any one from git.freescale.com http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/uboot-imx.git/refs/heads ?
