I found in yoctoproject mail list, mail "yocto Digest, Vol 33, Issue 95" said the qemuarm has upgrade to kernel 3.8 to fit for gcc4.8. So i think beagleboard kernel should be upgraded too. =================Beagleboard bootup log:=================== Texas Instruments X-Loader 1.5.0 (Jul 4 2013 - 17:36:22) Beagle xM Reading boot sector Loading u-boot.bin from mmc U-Boot 2011.06 (Jul 04 2013 - 17:36:32) OMAP36XX/37XX-GP ES2.1, CPU-OPP2, L3-165MHz, Max CPU Clock 1 Ghz OMAP3 Beagle board + LPDDR/NAND I2C: ready DRAM: 512 MiB NAND: 0 MiB MMC: OMAP SD/MMC: 0 *** Warning - readenv() failed, using default environment In: serial Out: serial Err: serial Beagle unknown 0x02 No EEPROM on expansion board Die ID #11c400229ff80000016830100e014012 Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0 OMAP3 beagleboard.org # OMAP3 beagleboard.org # OMAP3 beagleboard.org # setenv bootcmd 'mmc rescan 0; fatload mmc 0:1 0x80300000 uImage; bootm 0x80300000' OMAP3 beagleboard.org # setenv bootargs 'console=tty0 console=ttyO2,115200n8 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootwait rootfstype=ext3 ro' OMAP3 beagleboard.org # boot reading uImage 4298168 bytes read ## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 80300000 ...

The board works out of the box in the mainline kernel, but the board configuration needs updated to work with the 3.8 kernel (you get a rolling oops with the Yocto config on 3.8, but the 3.8 yocto kernel with the omap3defconfig is fine). We just need to find someone with the board, and the time to do the uprev. (hint: it is unlikely to be me). I'll hold the bug in my name for now, but we need to find the resource, and then move on replacing the beagleboard as the reference ARM platform. 34585 2 ning.zhang 2013-07-16 06:27:16 +0000 When i use 20130710-1 image (master: a63229917a5708de2d161aba0d67168ce0da6365), it could bootup the beagleboard.

Regardless, this issue does not happen. Marking as VERIFIED.
