Did that yesterday -- no change. Edit: That is an interesting thread, and more or less matches what I see. I strongly suspect that the HAT EEPROM is read by start4*.elf immediately before the DTB is loaded from the boot medium, and this is what's causing the problem I'm seeing. I don't know why for...
