I can try a runtime test tommorow. I even now have two devices.
Last time 2015.01 worked, but git with your changes does not.
I have'nt got the time to debug it via JTAG or GDB and I think my
knowledge about the u-boot internals are too bad.
What if I sent you my spare board?
Better one board with good support, then two with no support.
best regards
Waldemar
