1. Faulty RS232 converter 2. Enabled hardware flow control. Such issue sometimes happened with the FW6 platform during the firmware development and the above were the main reasons. Don't forget to keep the hardware flow control off when opening the serial port in your terminal emulator. Please also try different RS232 converter if possible. I also encountered faulty samples of such converters which did not work reliably (I have a bunch of converters of the same model and vendor, but 1 out of 20 was simply not working). Alternatively you may unplug the converter from any power to let it reset, just in case the converter caught some escape sequence in a wrong moment. Very unlikely that something is wrong with FW6C platform. > > _______________________________________________ > coreboot mailing list -- coreboot@coreboot.org > To unsubscribe send an email to coreboot-le...@coreboot.org Best regards, -- Michał Żygowski Firmware Engineer https://3mdeb.com | @3mdeb_com _______________________________________________ coreboot mailing list -- coreboot@coreboot.org To unsubscribe send an email to coreboot-le...@coreboot.org
