So do I (ccing Hardy).

Thanks. Sadly it (as you can see) just silently hangs after the kernel
decompressor :-( I've had a look at the linux-arm-kernel list for any
recent reports along these lines but I didn't see anything.
Apparently earlyprintk is enabled in our kirkwood kernels -- could you
try adding "earlyprintk" to your kernel command line args please.
Unless that gives us any clues then I think the next step is to take
this to the upstream l-a-k list.
I suppose it would be worth trying 3.13 from experimental first though.
