Now I've connected a serial terminal. I'm getting this:

RESETing to change Configuration!
Second-stage QUIK loader
boot: 

Inode error #2133571404 while loading file /vmlinuz.
Image not found.... try again
boot:  /vmlinuz

Inode error #2133571404 while loading file /vmlinuz.
Image not found.... try again
boot: scsi/sd@0:2/vmlinuz

Inode error #2133571404 while loading file /vmlinuz.
Image not found.... try again
boot:
