Serial console output of the first broken firmware image would be helpful to determine the cause of the problem. You can also provide even more amplifying information by doing an 'nvram set console_debug=1 && nvram commit && reboot' via telnet/ssh on the good build before flashing the first broken build. _________________ "The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
