I am having a lot of trouble making my ESPRESSObin v7 1GB DDR4 run without crashes. I have tried both Bionic (5.75 4.19.20) and Stretch (5.75 4.19.20) images, and neither are stable. I have tried with a lot of different PSUs (all switch-mode though) and booting from both microSD and USB sticks. My U-Boot is "flash-image-ddr4-1g-1cs-1000_800.bin".
It seems like there is about 50% chance that it will boot without a crash.

Hi All!
I am having a lot of trouble making my ESPRESSObin v7 1GB DDR4 run without crashes. I have tried both Bionic (5.75 4.19.20) and Stretch (5.75 4.19.20) images, and neither are stable. I have tried with a lot of different PSUs (all switch-mode though) and booting from both microSD and USB sticks. My U-Boot is "flash-image-ddr4-1g-1cs-1000_800.bin".
It seems like there is about 50% chance that it will boot without a crash.
The type of crashes I get seems random. Ex

And then it just freezes.
Or this one which includes a proper kernel Oops:

While running, I get errors like this one:
Once successfully booted, setting the CPUfreq governor to "performance" seems to make it more stable.
Am I the only one having problems getting a stable boot on V7?
Has anyone of you any tips on how to make it stable? I am willing to try compiling a new kernel if some experimental patches exists.
