u-boot not responsive on minicom for beaglebone black

[praveenkumar12]

I am booting beaglebone black using micro SD card. For experimenting something , I have built only u-boot files and copied the relevant MLO and .img files to SD card and booting beaglebone black. I am using ftdi cable from board to PC and my console is minicom.On my terminal I could see the u-boot log and u-boot prompt but when I give some commnad to u-boot prompt it is not responding at all. I want to know is this a minicom related issue or something else I am missing?

I expect that below prompt should entertain u-boot related commands. But I am not able to put any command here.

Are you certain you have the tx attached to rx on the board? And you only attached tx/rx/gnd?

sorry for the late reply.
I checked and found the connectin ok.
Anyway if the connection is not okay then will i get the log on minicom terminal?
Below is the snapshot of log

Do I have to change something in bootloader files?

What is the partition type?

I had such issue with minicom in the past (which suddenly appeared) and I didn't bother to debug it and just moved to picocom, here's how I usually initiate picocom
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '# picocom -b 115200 -p n -d 8 /dev/ttyUSB0')
