Does your system still have a serial interface? Maybe you should use this
interface as the kernel's console to be able to see more what really happens.

Add the kernel command line parameters "debug" and "earlyprintk" (with this
feature enabled in the kernel's config menu). Refer the in-kernel
documentation "Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt" for further details.
