Ok good.

The Linux is crashing before the virtual serial inside Linux is set up,
that's why we do not see anything. What typically helps is early-printk.
Thus, make sure to enable CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK in the L4Linux config and
to put earlyprintk=1 on the Linux command line. That should hopefully
show more and also the reason for the error.
