I've got RX going to RX and TX going to TX, I did just double check by popping open the connector and I'm sure of it. I've tried having it boot from a connected flash drive, it doesn't. It just sits and blinks the ethernet port without ever actually connecting to the router. The serial cable works. How difficult is it to flash Uboot over the serial cable?

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('WarheadsSE', 'Y')ou.. wha?

Tx <-> Rx not Tx <-> Tx


I... well then. Can you tell I'm fairly new to this? I was following the logic that you match the green to to green, so to speak, so I stuck Tx to Tx. I've got it working now and get an output over the serial connection. Thank you for pointing out that foolish mistake. :D

Anyway, now I seem to have an even stranger issue. Here's what I get

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'U-Boot 2010.09 (Oct 23 2010 - 11:51:16)
Marvell-PinkPogo by Jeff Doozan

SoC: Kirkwood 88F6281_A0

')

If I interrupt autoboot, I get to a prompt that says "Marvell>>" and has some commands. I'm assuming that those three bootcmd_* bits that aren't defined are how uboot knows how to boot? So I've just got to set those again and should be good to go? Thank you very much for your help so far.

YUP.. you got your uboot environment corrupted.

Anyone care to drop the correct settings?

I ended up finding a forum run by the makers of Uboot, so I've posted there asking for what to do. http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,8919

Thank you again for your help.

I got a response, and everything works. Just wanted to give this thread some closure.

Denx? ;)

I think you mean: "forum run by the makers of this Uboot"

Yes! This uBoot, whatever one I'm running. I didn't realize there are multiple ones.
