Hi Borislav,

Sorry it's taken me so long. I've been having issues.
I couldn't recreate that first boot failure, even using .config.old,
and even after removing (rm -fR) my linux.git and untarring it from the
original tarball, doing a make clean, etc.
The output before and after your new patch are the same (except for the times):
