Re: Building the kernel for a Broadcom SB1

[Jonathan Day <imipak@yahoo.com>]

I'm trying the patches with various configurations.
Every kernel I've tried building with both the
kobjects and debug info enabled in the kernel hacking
menu will work fine. Any kernel with either (or both)
disabled will lock up on boot.

At this time, I have no clear idea as to why the
debugs are making such a big difference. Particularly
if other people aren't experiencing exactly the same
problem. Any thoughts would be welcome.
