Re: Loading splash ok -> <reset>, how to debug?

OK. so it's eficom not eficon.

And it's weird...  I'm at BSDcan this week, and I want to help
(despite my earlier grumpiness... sorry about that)... but I'm not
sure I'll be in the right frame of mind enough to help before next
week.

I think you'll need to instrument elf64_exec in
stand/efi/loader/arch/arm64/exec.c to see if you make it too the
(*entry)(modulep) line or not.
