Found these Rock64 instructions googling the baud rate https://github.com/krjdev/rock64_openbsd. It says to use "minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 1500000 -8" Is that right? 115200 is the standard and what I tried. Maybe it rounds to the same thing.
That was it, it uses a non-standard baud rate:
Now I need to get my OpenBSD miniroot and uboot set back up on the SD since I replaced them with NetBSD. I never would have thought of trying 1500000. Oh, it's not just rounding, it's 13.02~ times as fast. 115200 is the fastest normal Minicom speed:
The krjdev instructions are interesting, there's no dding in with an offset, you dd the flash spi first and use it, then dd the miniroot and boot it. -->with a normal 115200 baud rate<-- run the installer, do the install, reboot and it's running OpenBSD.
1500000 baud is apparently only for flashing the SPI. Which is maybe not what I want to do since I mostly want to use Linux. But 1500000 baud matches the speed it's running at, with NetBSD anyway.
That was it, it uses a non-standard baud rate:
