Ah, one more thing: You need to pass a new variable to the kernel upon startup: "mx31lite_baseboard=1". This was done in order to split module code from baseboard code. In case you're using the 2-stage loading mechanism, you need to teach this to your first-stage loader. Also make sure you're downloading the full image to RAM from LoLo. The new kernel is certainly bigger than the version you currently use. Daniel
