The end story of this is that I wanted to keep my original image Gemini 3.7 in flash and experiment with Gemini 4.2 installed in multi boot.
To do so I installed Barry Allen “The second Flash” and updated my second stage boot loader to 72.
After having done all of that I started installing Gemini 4.2 in multi boot but I received that beautiful crash on boot.
The end story of this is that because the original flash image must be loaded before Barry Allen can sub launch another image you end by using the low level driver of your old flash image with the new image you multi boot. This is a combination that is not tested by developers and that will most of the time not work.
So multi booting on enigma 2 with Barry Allen may work for you but if you end with an unstable image you have the explanation here!
