@simonsouth
I have tested your kernel patch. Conclusions :
1. Problem - newer kernels locking/freezing during boot - SOLVED.
2. Problem - screen power management problem (cannot wake screen after it goes off) - SOLVED.
I tried to boot with the patched kernel about 40 times and couldn't get a lock so I would say it's fairly stable patch.
I have also uploaded new version of uboot to my repo.
Added features:
1. Btrfs support.
2. NVME boot option to menu.
If somebody wants to test the binaries ----> https://gitlab.com/as400l/pbp-uboot-display-menu
Remember - to have a consistent booting you must have kernel with @simonsouth patch.
