Alan, you should be aware that there are some issues with am35x support. They are being worked on but aren't there yet. To get by for now, make sure you add 'nohlt' to your kernel cmdline and do not enable CONFIG_CPU_IDLE. If you want to suspend/resume (i.e., suspend-to-RAM), you will have more issues so avoid doing that if you can.
