I trimmed most of the context, the quoting was getting rather deep.

- I have tried multiple SD cards, and they boot other releases; as noted,
they are not the problem.
- I hadn't waited long enough / for enough repeats of the timeout. Looks
like it takes 16 failures, but it does in fact boot. It then prints
mmc1: No compatible cards found on bus
and there is no mmcsd1 in /dev.
- Setting the timeout to 1 makes booting tolerable. I'll keep BETA3
running now.
Thanks,
Mike
