Kernel stuck at "Deasserting all peripheral resets"

Linux Kernel
#1

I have the following problem:

I have built an kernel from this repo. The u-boot loader works and tries to loader the image.

When starting the kernel, it stops outputting and seems not to progress.

It stucks at Deasserting all peripheral resets

This is the output:

Any help or tips how to debug such situation, would be welcomed :slight_smile:

Or if you have suggestions how to solve this problem

#4

It seems to be due to the dtb. I used one for the de0-nano provided by the repo and got following error message:
