Well, FWIW I can't even get a kernel with the default configuration built from 
meta-raspberrypi to boot - I even tried copying it to a Debian SD-card and it 
doesn't boot there either. All I get is a black screen or with the newer 
firmware I get the four-colour display which apparently indicates it couldn't 
load the kernel.

Any suggestions would be welcome...

Cheers,
Paul
