Thanks Robert. I've started using the 3.14 kernel (although the less bleeding edge bone8 version), and I built a custom dtb to enable both the 4Dcape-43t and a secondary non-pin-conflicting uart using your bb-kernel repo. It's worked beautifully. Apologies to Scott for not being able to follow up on his 3.8 kernel patch.
I ran into issues when using apt to install the ti-rXX kernels. The apt-get install command fails due to single quotes in an sed command in a zz-uenv file. We tried to get it to run by replacing the single quotes around older_kernel and latest_kernel with ' " ' " ', but then something broke on reset, and I forget now what errors we were seeing. It's possible these issues have been resolved recently. I'll try installing the latest kernel sometime when it isn't past 3am. :) We've been using omap-image-builder, and setup-sdcard.sh exits when a -ti- kernel is specified. This is another reason, albeit possibly misguided, that we shied away from using the -ti- kernels and stuck to the bone kernels. I'm not sure what the difference is? One more comment about our adventures with omap-image-builder. We added usbmount to the package list in omap-image-builder, and usbmount uses /media/usbX as mount points, so it creates those directories. The init-eMMC-flasher-v3 excludes /media/* from being rsync'ed so we added the necessary mkdir -p's after the relevant rsync to fix this. Thanks again for all of your hard work.
