[linux-sunxi] Root file system for Linux-sunxi 3.4 on Cubietruck
Hello to everybody First of all, i'm using a micro SD and a Cubietruck. I have installed U-boot-2015.04 and linux-sunxi (from https://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi ) I have followed the guide available online and it boots. But when starting kernel, if i connect Cubietruck via VGA, i can't see anything. Otherwise, if i connect via UART, it works!!! What can be the solution?? Another request: i need a target root file system as indicated in http://linux-sunxi.org/Linux_Kernel#Install What root filesystem can i use??

Re: [linux-sunxi] Console on VGA and not on UART
Hi! I have successfully changed the console and now i can see boot process on VGA. But there is another problem :D Now i need to see the kernel on VGA and not on UART. I read "Starting Kernel" on VGA but after i can't see anything. I think maybe the Linux Kernel is on UART. How can i modify it??
