Hi again,

It looks like this is either timing related or a false alarm :(

I saved the .config reverted to an older commit, and then tried to go
back, and now the thing will suddenly boot.

I'll try to see if I can reproduce it, if I manage, I shall be happy to
post the .config and the full boot log. It's a Supermicro motherboard of
some sort:

Supermicro X8DTN+
AMIBIOS Core Ver:08.00.15

There is nothing special about it, but I know the BIOS is utter junk.

Sorry for the noise.

Cheers,
Jes
