Robert -

I'm using a BeagleBone Black Rev C running Stretch IoT 2018-03-25 SD
card image. Kernel 4.16.0-rc2-bone3 boots OK.

I recently updated to the latest mainline rc kernel with:

/opt/scripts/tools/update_kernel.sh --exp-kernel --bone-kernel

However, boot of 4.16.0-rc7-bone7 kernel hangs after "Starting kernel ..."

Full serial console output:

Any idea?

Thanks!
Drew

fyi - kernel 4.16.0-rc6-bone7 does work OK. It is just the
4.16.0-rc7-bone7 kernel that hangs.

This looks like a fun one..

First git bisect run, lead to a false positive.

Here goes run #2. :wink:

Okay got this sucker..

Thanks, Robert.

I am able to boot 4.16.0-bone8 ok on BeagleBone Black.
