Hello Tim, some weeks ago I had similar problems with the new PC Engines APU board,
I suppose you took the "Bering-uClibc_5.1_x86_64_syslinux_vga.tar.gz" which does not use the serial console. So I took the configdb.lrp from the "Bering-uClibc_5.1_geode_syslinux_serial.tar.gz" and modified the syslinux.cfg file to read like this: /syslinux/syslinux.cfg SERIAL 0 115200 DISPLAY syslinux.dpy TIMEOUT 0 APPEND reboot=bios usb_wait=3 console=ttyS0,115200n8 VERBOSE=1 intel_idle.max_cstate=0 processor.max_cstate=1 DEFAULT /syslinux/linux initrd=/initrd.lrp,/initmod.lrp rw root=/dev/ram0 LEAFCFG=/dev/sda1:vfat However, I suppose we are missing a version for 64bit systems with only a serial console ?!
