Hi Chris, do you use openembedded-core and meta-gumstix [1], or another configuration? > It hangs right after "Freeing init memory: 212K". > Then after about 30 seconds, I get "NET: Registered protocol family 10". > Then after another 7 minutes, I get "udevd[75]: starting version 181". > Then, nothing else-- but I haven't waited hours. The overo kernel I currently use works fine (3.0.17 from meta-gumstix). But for the first boot of a fresh rootfs the machine takes a long time (to create gtk-icon-cache or whatnot). To be honest if I boot any xserver image the boot process will go on for 30 minutes without any message. > The heartbeat LED is still blinking, so it's not totally dead.

My guess: It is because of postinstall scripts that need to be run on the machine at the first boot, can't tell if the init .rc files get "converted" at the first start too. > I did a similar experiment a couple weeks ago, I think with the 3.0.17 > kernel, building on another host machine and it worked fine. > > Thanks for any pointers.
