Hi Kyösti,

No, it's never worked, but I've only had the Chromebook a week. Where 
it terminates seems to depend on whether I redirect cat to a file or 
not. If I don't redirect I get further messages than you can see in the 
file I attached about "loading segments" and finally "Using LZMA".

CBMEM console is disabled, but early pre-RAM console is enabled, yes. 
I've tried removing "select CHROMEOS" from the board's Kconfig, but it 
doesn't even build (tried from clean), and I just add it back again. 
Only other change I ever make is the default hard-coded menu key in 
SeaBIOS.

John.
