This happens without Linux first starting, right?

Do you know about https://barebox.org/doc/latest/user/system-reset.html ? TL;DR: Cold reset is usually the preferred way to reset as it comes with the least amount of surprises. > Does this ring a bell for people more experiened?

Poweron, cold restart working always100%, warm restart never. What does a cold reset do on an electrical level? Does it tell the PMIC to do a reset? Anther thing, I wonder about is what configuration the PMIC has on affected boards and boards not affected. Can you use the I2C commands in barebox to read the PMIC register set and compare it between the affected and unaffected boards? Maybe they have different mask defaults?
