Just a quick question. Do I need to have the linux arm kernel installed via tftp before the serial console shows any output? I should think not and that the redboot? loader would output text to the console by default?
Is this correct?

Yes, it's correct.

It's not easy to find a suitable cable. I have tried with three of
them before finding the right one. They were supposedly "standard"
serial PC bracket cables, but whith the first two, I had only some
garbage on the screen.

Good luck,
