This is happening very early in the boot process (first stag init),
wherein init is supposed to load the kernel modules from ramdisk and
mount the partitions.

System does boot successfully 2/5 times, so this is definitely a
timing issue as Douglas also pointed out in the other thread. I'll try
to follow his suggestions and narrow down the issue further.

Sorry about that. I thought I had Mark copied over from the other
thread, after-all he was the one who suggested this patch, but I
didn't :facepalm:
