This is a long standing bug, that i didn't fix till yesterday..
"--dtb" only choose the generic multi platform kernel, thus the "--dtb
beaglebone" would not have much working.. With the "2014-05-06" use
"--uboot bone"..
Of course, i released a new image last night "2014-06-05" (maybe a
should have waited a few more days so the numbers were so oddly
close)..
Which "--dtb beaglebone" now works thanks to:
