The problem I have now is changing my u-boot baud rate to 9600 (which is what the powers that be have decided). I tried changing CONFIG_BAUDRATE to 9600 but it has no effect, it just stays at 115200. Any ideas?
I can't think of a proper reason why changing CONFIG_BAUDRATE and a make (after make clean) shouldn't help, but you can surely do the following (in u-boot):
Well, a possible reason is that the environment is not embedded with the U-Boot image (i. e. stored in a separate flash sector, on in EEPROM or NVRAM etc.), so installing a new U-Boot image will not automatically overwrite the environment.
setenv baudrate 9600 [adjust terminal emulator and press enter] saveenv
Right. This should always work.
