        Always add "console=" switch on the kernel commandline, for
next few years at least. "console=/dev/tty0" for console logging (make
sure that FB driver is builtin) or "console=/dev/ttyS0" for serial
(you can have both, too, tty0 should go last).

        Yes, see Angstrom FAQ: http://linuxtogo.org/gowiki/AngstromFaq

>   Thank you, any help will be appreciated. Kind regards, Zdenek Kunicky
