What do you use for output? DOpE, l4con or textmode? Looks like you have
neither l4con nor dope running, and no VGA support either so that
their's no output available.
Another possibility is to use the l4ser serial stub driver, and supply
console=ttyLv0 on the kernel command line. Then there should be the
normal kernel boot up output.

If it's in l4x_blink, it (probably) has panic'ed. Backtrace in jdb can
be done with the 'bt' command.
