RPi hangs in bootloader

[Tim Kientzle]

On your x86 build machine:

$ cd /usr/src/usr.bin/dtc
$ make
$ make install

I'll add some more checks to the build script to test for dtc.
(As of a couple of weeks ago, dtc is now built and installed
by default, so this issue should be less common going forward.)

Thanks for the diagnosis.

Tim
