Hello,

I can't get it to boot a custom kernel anymore (after like 15 attempts,
rebuilding kernels both with and without IGNORE_ATAG_MEM and various mem=
settings). It does boot fine to the NAND-based Android after reflashing,
though.

From the symptoms it looks like my kernels get stuck at "Unable to mount root
FS" or something similar, because NumLock toggles fine on the keyboard, and
Alt+SysRq+B works; but Xorg or DHCP client do not seem to start, and the root
FS has no traces of having been mounted.

Maybe someone can point me to a howto about opening the MK802 and connecting
the serial console?
