    normal boot from a USB hard disk.

    Meanwhile, both Chromium and Firefox have quit playing videos,
    remaining stuck at the loading screen but updating thumbnails
    if the progress slider is advanced.

    It looks like the latest update fixed both chromium and firefox.
    Videos play smoothly. Not sure what changed, as the update was to
    rpi-eeprom, but in any case videos are now viewable.

    Thanks for reading,

    Anybody else seeing this?
