hangs when booting from flash

[lwfinger]

I have no idea what might be causing this problem; however, the first step is to use strace to see where a command is hanging. See 'man strace' for more info.

On your distro, is ifconfig a script or a program? What distro are you using?

i looked at some forums and tried also 'rfkill unblock all' - but that had no effect
it is strange:
if i boot with same kernel from sd-card, it works ok, even if i mount flash first
if i boot with same kernel from nand flash, it does not work, even if i chroot to sd-card first
