Just to add to the previous post if I connect my USB cable, Android seems to come out of boot loop and proceed to the USB plugged screen.
Therefore it does not seem to be kernel / root issue. It must be something to do with init scripts for booting from SD. I am hoping some one can give me some clue. The logs at the time of boot loop are here. I guess it is not due KP..
