Nand Loader Outputs On Serial Cable

WARNING! This sort of thing could easily brick your C3000.

Aha! If you plug the serial cable and into the Zaurus and reboot you see the following on the serial console:

Neither break nor Ctrl-C have any effect on the boot process. Maybe this screen would give some useful information if your C3000 is bricked? Any ideas?

What serial cable?

[gjarboni]

What serial cable?

The CE-170TS. It's the serial cable for the 5500 and it's available on Amazon (and other places).

COMMANDLINE= console=ttyS0

That's why - it's just debugging output.

I presume that cable gets plugged into the 'Service Port' at the back of the Z..?

[omega]

so there is a connected standard serial port on the 3000?

Yep.
