Grr, I double-checked how it got stuck, then I found the console
redirect was disabled because of an old device.hints. The revised
summary is:
loading text loading syms boot
1) OK OK OK
2a) "readin failed" - -
2b) OK "skipped!" OK
2c) OK "skipped!" OK
3a) OK OK OK
3b) OK OK OK
3c) OK OK OK
So, the case 2c shows that your patch solves the problem in the case
2a. Thank you! :)
Loading >8MB kernel works now, but loading syms sections still fails
even in the case 2c.
