Hi there,
on my MPC8xx board I use SMC1 as serial console for U-Boot and Linux.
I start linux using these bootargs
setenv bootargs root=/dev/mtdblock0 rw console=ttyS0
Linux tells me ... CPM UART driver version 0.04 ttyS0 on SMC1 at 0x0280, BRG1 ttyS1 on SMC2 at 0x0380, BRG2 ttyS2 on SCC1 at 0x0000, BRG3 ...
Everything is fine. BUT: Now I just wanted to set bootargs to "root=/dev/mtdblock0 rw console=ttyS2" in order to get a Linux console at a different Port. But it's not working, i.e. I can't see any messages at ttyS2.
Could it be that since I configured U-Boot to use SMC for console, it's not going work with SCC anyway?
Thanks,
Steven
