Checking this on real hardware would be great, trying to put everyone
involved in the loop through cc.


So I've just tried this linux-image-4.9.0-8-armmp_4.9.144-4 on my 
OLinuXino-LIME2, it boots ok, everything seems to work well.


Thanks !

Hi all,

Same issue here with 4.9.144-3 on my Olimex OLinuXino-LIME2 board 
(Allwinner A20 cpu) :

u-boot is struck at "Starting kernel", nothing happens after that.

This board boots ok with 4.9.130-2 and also with 4.9.135-1 (found at 
snapshot.debian.org).


I'm using the armmp kernel variant (non-lpae), if that helps I could 
easily try with lpae.
More generally please let me know if I can help pinpointing the issue by 
testing some more
kernel images. Note that I've never played with (cross-)compiling armhf 
kernels myself, though.


Despite this specific issue, thanks for all this great work, it's so 
cool to have Debian

supported out-of-the box on such little boards !

Jean
