Often the reboot cycle is from some application deemed as Truly Needed(tm) dying (at which point the failsafe mechanism boots). Without dedicated devices the recovery could be tricky, but one can try with setting the 'no-lifeguard-reset' r&d flag[1] with flasher and praying it will boot up to having a GUI (or if installed, sshd) available for debugging. AFAIK, you need to use gcc3.4, I've succesfully compiled a kernel for the 770 with the arm-linux-gcc3.4.cs-glibc2.3 toolchain (with wlan working etc), so it indeed could be that the kernel fails to load some modules and someone gets confused over it.
