I built a debian stretch image (with 4.14.67-ti-r73) kernel using the current image-builder -- I used the rcn-ee_console_debian_stretch_armhf configuration.
Once I've flashed it, when it comes up, I notice the green LED on the ethernet is blinking quickly. Once it comes up, it ends up with a self-assigned IP, but eventually picks up a DHCP address. Seems like it's dropping a lot of packets ... cannot SSH into it and ping shows intermittent results. Nothing obviously wrong in dmesg, here's the tail end: ...

Note that I've tried the 4.4 kernel version with the same results, so I guess it's either something in stretch, or a dtb issue. Any ideas???
