Yes indeed using the vanilla kernel console=ttyAMA0 works. but when using the older 2.6.35 kernel from freescale the console command line needs to be console=ttyAM0 . I guess device names changes since 2.6.35 . I am replying to make sure some other person doesn't go through the same effort. BTW, is this device name change captured in some commit log, should it be documented some place (how can I help?) Thanks for the help! -Sam -- ptxdist mailing list [email protected]
