After giving advice on how to get the build process to find the kernel sources, I ended up needing to fight the build process myself.

Yes, but I just wondered if you had any issues with the kernel. There are supposedly various issues with the different Atmel drivers and SMP-related patches, for example, and I wondered if this could be the cause of the experienced lock-ups.
