Just read this thread. Looks like you are not able to boot the kernel at all. 2.6.37 + Tony's queue booted for me without any issues. I can give a try on 2.6.37. TFTP is already supported on the latest bootloaders. http://dev.omapzoom.org/?p=bootloader/u-boot.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/o map4_dev Will send you binaries in another email. Regards Santosh
