Below is the serial console message I've got: <6>Freeing init memory: 584K Freeing init memory: 584K ø<6>/init exit code: -14 /init exit code: -14 <4>Failed to execute /init Failed to execute /init Things went wrong from the third line. I've looked at the corresponding linux code, the boot process stopped at a data abort exception from address in __arch_clear_user at 0xc012ad44. Any ideas on why this is happening and possible ways to fix it would be greatly appreciated. Jack
