This is the globalconfig file:

I tried several configurations, for example I added the following

    < CONFIG_ARM_ALIGNMENT_CHECK=y
    < CONFIG_ARM_ENABLE_SWP=y
    < CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y
    < CONFIG_FPU=y
    < CONFIG_ARM_CPU_ERRATA=y

to the config file, but it doesn't solve the problem. In the meantime 
I'm checking the vexpress memory map in the directory 
kernel/fiasco/src/kern/arm, but everything looks good to me. Is there 
anyone who actually uses FIASCO with this configuration?
