from workload-automation.

It's all from linaro sd card image from this link

Plus my custom kernel on top, obviously.

from workload-automation.

I've just restored the master version again so I could get a log of the failure. This is the interesting bit.

I found the problem - we change the crlf pair for the uboot menu with a comment as below in utils/uboot.py in UbootMenu.__init__

    self.conn.crlf = '\n\r'  # TODO: this has *got* to be a bug in U-Boot...

If we change this to \r\n (which matches the output recorded in my backtrace), then booting works correctly.

I don't know how we can manage this while we have broken and non-broken uboot versions - some version string detection at boot?

Here's my local change as a patch in case it's useful.

from workload-automation.

This should be fixed in #153 , can you give it a shot?
