Hi!
Looks like commit #1099 while being quite trivial broke something for my system
Stage 2 loader (boot) just resets a PC on invocation for all builds starting form version 1099. Version 1098 works fine though.
I build svn trunk from command line on OS X 10.6.8. My .config:
CONFIG_OPTIMIZATION_LEVEL="-Oz"
CONFIG_BDMESG=y
CONFIG_FDISK440=y
# CONFIG_OPENUP is not set
CONFIG_BOOT0_HFSFIRST=y
# CONFIG_BOOT0_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_BOOT0_VERBOSE=y
CONFIG_BOOT1_HFS=y
# CONFIG_BOOT1_HFS_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_BOOT1_HFS_VERBOSE=y
CONFIG_BOOT1_HFS_ACTIVE=y
# CONFIG_BOOT1_HFS_ACTIVE_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_BOOT1_HFS_ACTIVE_VERBOSE=y
# CONFIG_MODULES is not set
Motherboard is Intel DP35DP with Core 2 Quad CPU.
