Firefly rk3288 : the kernel hangs at "Starting kernel" message

I have the same problem as at the beginning here - the boot loop... The parameters file doesn't help. Don't know how to fix it, even flashing original files from FireFly doesn't fix the issue.

Any idea how one can fix the loop? This is my original topic for discussion: http://bbs.t-firefly.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=550

Thx, Vlad.

In my case, the reason of the kernel loop was the power cable. I took a USB cable from Cubieboard and it power up the board just to flash. However, as soon as the board starts, the board doesn't have enough power and the board reboots.

All of a sudden, I realized, I have another USB cable, the original one. As soon as I replaced the power cable, the board starts working and the boot continues...

Sorry for the mess on the forum,
Vlad.

The problem is fixed by using the original power cable.

Thank you, Vlad.
