[Arm-dev] kernel rebase for rpi2/rpi3 : call for feedback !

[Jordi Sanfeliu]

Fabian,

I've just tested the new 4.4.14 kernel version and I'm still having boot 
problems, I can only see the colored screen.

This is the list of files in the '/boot' filesystem after upgrading from 
4.1.9-v7 using 'rpm -Uvh' instead of 'yum update'. Please compare with 
yours and let me know any discrepancies:

Before the upgrade there was the file 'initrd-plymouth.img' but it looks 
like now is missing, I guess this was part of the upgrade process. Some 
files also have changed a little their size.

# cat cmdline.txt
dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p3 rootfstype=ext4 
elevator=deadline rootwait ipv6_disable=1

# cat config.txt
#uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default.

Thanks.
