If you have an hdmi monitor hooked up, i just finished redirecting the eMMC flasher's log to /dev/tty0 last friday. to enable: mount "flasher" rootfs onto other pc, edit /boot/uEnv.txt: Add a commit to: cmdline=init=/opt/scripts/tools/eMMC/init-eMMC-flasher-v3.sh to: #cmdline=init=/opt/scripts/tools/eMMC/init-eMMC-flasher-v3.sh Place the "microsd" back into the bbb, then run, hold down the boot button, it should boot.. Then: cd /opt/scripts/ git pull Now go back to: /boot/uEnv.txt and uncomment: #cmdline=init=/opt/scripts/tools/eMMC/init-eMMC-flasher-v3.sh to: cmdline=init=/opt/scripts/tools/eMMC/init-eMMC-flasher-v3.sh sudo halt.. Now it'll flash the eMMC and the progress will be shown on hdmi.. (the serial is still much more detailed, but it'll give us an idea of what's happening..)
