Using serial console

The C6472, C6457 and C6474L EVMs comes with a UART port.


 * On the C6472 EVM J10 jumper 3-5, 4-6 are connected and please make sure that SW2 pin 5 is ON
 * On the C6474L EVM J13 jumper 3-5, 4-6 are connected
 * On the C6457 EVM J13 jumper 3-5, 4-6 are connected

Also the kernel command line needs to be changed appropriately

Please make the following change in the kernel config which can be found at the location depicted below. Use the appropriate defconfig depending on the EVM.



Then make the following change in evmc64xx.mk. Please note that we pass console=ttySI0 where the "0" is a "zero" and NOT a capital O.



Configure the serial port as shown below



You should see the kernel boot up on the serial console.
