@gbon -- cool that latest photo very nearly gets the top. It also gives us much more of a clue as to what was going on when it went bang as we do have the top of the stack at least. Thanks for testing.
I have attempted to add debug to the place I think things are going wrong and built a test kernel for you. Perhaps you could test that kernel and let me know what if anything you see. I have made it check some things and then print some debug and pause for 20s, it will do this twice if a successful boot, pictures of those would help. If I have targetted the error correctly we may see only one. Let me know what you see.
