Tim, I'm almost done with getting kernel working with latest raspberry Pi = firmware. Just need to figure out how to make ubldr pass FDT pointer from u-boot to kernel = and handle=20 /reserve/ information in ARM machdep code.=20 Meanwhile I suggest editing .dts file manually. Fill out "display" node = properties with proper display resolution and depth. Also add ukbd driver. That should get you = working console.=20=
