U-boot is used to boot the kernel. Similar setup here (except for LVM). The box seems quite solid (multiple kernel compiles, and nothing is screaming). My u-boot says: CPU0: APM ARM 64-bit Potenza Rev A3 2400MHz PCP 2400MHz 32 KB ICACHE, 32 KB DCACHE SOC 2000MHz IOBAXI 400MHz AXI 250MHz AHB 200MHz GFC 125MHz How does this compares to yours?
