[sp] This is definitely not the right place. The question belongs to
     linux-omap mailing list.

[sp] You have shared no information on versions of x-loader, u-boot and
     kernel. How is your custom board different from any known platform
     omap3evm, beagle, sdp, ...

     In absence, you should look at your customizations and ensure all
     board specific hook-ups or changes are properly handled in software.

[sp] Provide more details and move your kernel related queries to linux-omap.
