Bug Description

I've got a BeagleBoard xM and I'm running Android on it. When Android boots up on the Rev C the console won't accept characters and the monitor fails to come up. The kernel comes up fine and Android run no problem as evidenced by the console messages that come out saying that the RIL has started, etc.

To get the build do:

wget --no-check-certificate https://android-build.linaro.org/jenkins/job/linaro-android_beagle-11.07-release/3/artifact/build/out/target/product/beagleboard/boot.tar.bz2
wget --no-check-certificate https://android-build.linaro.org/jenkins/job/linaro-android_beagle-11.07-release/3/artifact/build/out/target/product/beagleboard/system.tar.bz2
wget --no-check-certificate https://android-build.linaro.org/jenkins/job/linaro-android_beagle-11.07-release/3/artifact/build/out/target/product/beagleboard/userdata.tar.bz2
bzr branch lp:linaro-image-tools
./linaro-image-tools/linaro-android-media-create --mmc /dev/sdc --dev beagle --system system.tar.bz2 --userdata userdata.tar.bz2 --boot boot.tar.bz2

I also did this to update the x-loader on the image I got:

 wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/75312547/x-loader-omap3-beagle_1.5.1%2Bgit20110715%2Bfca7cd2-1ubuntu1_armel.deb
 2310 dpkg -X x-loader-omap3-beagle_1.5.1+git20110715+fca7cd2-1ubuntu1_armel.deb .
 2311 sudo mkdir mnt
 2312 sudo mount /dev/sdc1 mnt
 2313 sudo cp ./usr/lib/x-loader/omap3530beagle/MLO mnt
 2314 sudo cp ./usr/lib/x-loader/omap3530beagle/x-load.bin mnt
 2315 pwd
 2316 sudo umount mnt
