I have a TS-7260 that has stopped booting from the sd card.  The boot starts as 
normal, but ends with:

<snip>
Mounted devfs on /dev
Freeing init memory: 76K
Using sdcard.o
sdcard0: Technologic Systems SD card controller, address 0x13000000
sdcard0: card size 3970048 sectors
Partition check:
 sdcard0a:
 
As this point, the boot hangs.


The machine was working fine today, then we change from test fixture to 
another, and the problems started.

I booted into Redboot and manually loaded the kernel and initrd via http and 
ran into the same problem.

I tried to boot from another SD card that works fine in one of my other 7260s 
and ran into the same problem.

The 7260 is equipped with a TS-RELAY8 which is being used to turn several small 
12 VDC light bulbs on and off.  It also measures its line voltage via a voltage 
divider hooked up to ADC2 on DIO2, with a nominal voltage of 1.2 VDC.  We have 
several switches hookup up between ground and the DIO lines on the DIO1 
connector. There is also a 4x20 LCD display with keypad on COM2.

The boxes are under active development, and I am concerned that stray voltage 
has entered the 7260 one way or another and has zorched the SD Card socket, but 
I really have no idea one way or another.

My question is: what is the likely problem, and is it hardware or software?  If 
it is software, what might that be?


Anyone have any thoughts?
