No, it crashed while loading FILO.

It seems you're using revision 4671, I fixed that particular issue (or a
_very_ likely candidate) in r4697, so please update to at least that
revision.

If you can't update your tree for some reason, at least apply its patch
to your tree (svn diff -c 4697 | patch -p0).

Please tell us if that fixes it.

As you suspected, I was using 4671.  I have now upgraded to 4742 through the qa.coreboot.org site; I was not able to get svn https: to work with our proxy server.

Unfortunately no.  The simulation clock freezes after 7.33 (simulated) seconds but does not display a triple fault message.  No VGA screen comes up.
