This kernel doesn't boot for me either, although I'm not really sure what is going wrong.
I've installed it by downloading linux-headers-3.2.0-58-omap, linux- headers-3.2.0-58 and linux-image-3.2.0-58-omap, doing dpkg -i on those three .debs, and later run a modified version of the flash-kernel script to install it (to allow this to be flashed despite the omap vs omap4 mismatch). On boot it goes as far as "Starting kernel ..." but it never prints "Uncompressing Linux" as the other kernels do. The test kernel I built myself that works just fine was built using the cross building instructions from http://omappedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_kernel_for_OMAP4, based on http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu- precise.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ti-omap4, with the cherry-picked conflict resolved as in the attached patch. ** Patch added: "0001-ARM-7735-2-Preserve-the-user-r-w-register-TPIDRURW-o.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ti-omap4/+bug/1265024/+attachment/3943370/+files/0001-ARM-7735-2-Preserve-the-user-r-w-register-TPIDRURW-o.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-ti-omap4 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1265024 Title: TLS register TPIDRURW not preserved on context switch and fork Status in “linux-ti-omap4” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Please backport commit a4780adeefd042482f624f5e0d577bf9cdcbb760 (which is included in upstream kernel 3.11) to the ti-omap4 packages for ubuntu precise. I tried doing this manually, and when cherrypicking there's a minor pretty trivial conflict to resolve, and after cherrypicking it works just fine.
