It may be that the serial line communications program you use is
sending things
when you start it. If uboot receives anything, it will interrupt the
boot sequence.
I generally wait for a few minutes to check whether the 'regular' boot
succeeds before connecting a serial cable. It appears that something
else is interrupting the boot sequence before I even have the cance to
send garbage to my plug ;-)
Is there some logging facility in uboot to review its output before a
serial connection was made?
Anyway... Is there a serial program you could recommend that is known
to work without sending garbage (preferably in Ubuntu's repos)? Just
to rule out this possible source of interference.
I don't have a Sheevaplug but for many other devices:-
I have never had any problems with minicom on Linux. There is a Ubuntu
package for it.
HyperTerminal on Windows also works.
For LaCie devices using a similar Marvell SoC:-
Instead of a serial cable you can use clunc, a netconsole, available
here: http://lacie-nas.org/doku.php?id=clunc
However this probably will not work for you as I believe it uses a LaCie
extension to the Marvell U-Boot port :(
Cheers,
Chris
