Does it power down after few tens of seconds? If so, I've seen this same issue few times after having my panda powered off for a while, for example over the weekend. What I've noticed is that leaving just u-boot prompt running for a few minutes cures the problem somehow.. After that the kernel will boot just fine. Regards, Tony
