To initialize the U-Boot firmware running on your canyonlands board, you
have to connect a terminal to the board's serial console port.
The default configuration of the console port on the canyonlands board
uses a baudrate of 115200/8N1 (115200 bps, 8
Bit per character, no parity, 1 stop bit,
no
handshake).
If you are running Linux on your host system we recommend either
kermit or
cu as terminal
emulation programs. Do
not use
minicom, since this has caused problems for many
users, especially for software download over the serial port. Other possibilities include
screen and
picocom, which both seem to work well.
For the configuration of your terminal program see section
4.1. Serial Console Access
Make sure that both hardware and software flow control are
disabled.
