Please unblock package flash-kernel (both deb and udeb).
We have received a report on debian-arm (see
https://lists.debian.org/debian-arm/2015/04/msg00016.html and bug
#782016) that running d-i on a Cubox-i4pro (armhf system) worked
without problems on a serial console, but that the installed
system did not appear to come up. The source of the problem was
that the boot script which is installed by flash-kernel into the
final system on Cubox hardware does not pass the u-boot console
variable to the kernel, so the kernel actually boots, but the
user has no way to interact with it. The boot script used by the
installer itself passes the console variable, which is why
running the installer worked without problems.
Checking the other boot scripts used by flash-kernel showed that
the boot script for the Wandboard has the same issue, therefore
bootscr.cubox-i and bootscr.wandboard have been amended to pass
the u-boot console variable to the kernel.
The changes have been tested on the Cubox-i4pro (by Rick Thomas,
the original reporter) and on the Wandboard (by Vagrant
Cascadian). While Vagrant was doing tests on different Wandboard
models, we found that the flash-kernel machine database has an
entry for the Wandboard Quad, but not for the Wandboard Solo/Dual
Lite (same baseboard, but using a stripped-down single/dual-core
variant of the i.MX6 SoC). Vagrant has supplied an appropriate
machine stanza (which covers both the Solo and the Dual Lite) and
I have included it. As the machine db entry does not influence
any existing code, I conside this addition suitable for Jessie
despite the freeze.
Following is the debdiff between flash-kernel 3.34 and 3.35:
