Unless you have a serial connection, you will see nothing, well samueldr uboot shows on display
So, take off back, flip switch, plug in 3.3V converter, use some terminal emulator, I use putty
('cause you don,t have to remember command switches, others work OK)
Usually hit space to stop boot, then use uboot command line
BUT
the best way to test that Chromium image would be on SD, usb boot is a bit "spotty"
It is getting complicated. I have to buy an USB-serial connector. I am living on a small island in the Caribean.
Do I have to order the "EZSync USB to TTL(RS232) Cable, FTDI Chip, 3.3V TTL, 1.8 Meter, 3.5mm Audio Jack, TTL-232R-3V3-AJ (Transparent)"
That will add $ 50,- to make my PBP work.
By the way: Does anyone know: If I place ChromiumOS (Unfortunately I love Linux) Can I make Skype video calls in the Chrome browser?
All answer are appreciated. You are helping a retired programmer (Pascal language)
Thx, Teunis
