Hi  have a kingfisher rev M04

The original symptom was that the radio does not start.

After some investigation, I found out that the init of the radio chip fails:

I narrowed down the test case to this:

#si_init

#si_ctl /dev/i2c-12 0x65 -b fm

The interesting thing is that boot from file works:

m3ulcb:~# si_init

m3ulcb:~# /usr/bin/si_ctl /dev/i2c-12 0x65 -a fm -p US -t 128 -u 128 -c 87900

... but after si_init,

the boot from flash will fail:
