Re: [jornada] Newbie with a screen question.

Alex,

When using my kernel, set serial port to 19200 along with hpcboot.exe.

I'm getting ready to post a patch against the mkN-hhN stuff that includes some
Jornada720 fixes, and compiled in filesystem (been playing with CIBD, INITTAR,
INITRAMFS patches).

I'm also hoping to post a real how-to with working kernel to boot Linux off a CF
card (which would include a compiled-in ramdisk with cardmgr to bootstrap).

All depends on my schedule this week :)
