[SOLVED] RasPi not booting after firmware update

[sick1982]

The suggested solution works for me too. My cmdline.txt is now:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'sdhci-bcm2708.enable_llm=1 sdhci-bcm2708.cycle_delay=1000 smsc95xx.turbo_mode=N dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=ttyAMA0,115200 kgdboc=ttyAMA0,115200 console=tty1 loglevel=2 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 init=/bin/systemd rootfstype=ext4 rootwait')

Looks like your actual problem is nothing to do with the packaged firmware or kernel though. There could be a million reasons why you got a freeze at that point.

I have tried to use my Pi today for video playback.

Even if my Pi now boots with latest firmware (20121021) and kernel (v13) after removing the dma option from cmdline.txt, video playback with XBMC is highly unstable (some videos don't start, some work and some freeze the Pi).

Are you aware of any changes made to the videocore firmware in the last version?
Am I the only one experiencing these issues?

FYI, the last working versions for me are firmware 20121013 and kernel v11.

I was getting the same issue. The suggestions here fixed it, just one question.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Bobyl', 'I') had to remove this option:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
sdhci-bcm2708.sync_after_dma=0
')

from cmdline.txt

Removing sdhci-bcm2708.cycle_delay=1000 should be way to go.

If I understood correctly, that parameter should be used with older kernel/firmware, not with the newest one, but post upgrade message remained the same causing breakage.
