init / console

[Kevin Holland]

Hi,

This is probably not the best forum to ask this question, but try
writing  out console=ttyUL0, 115200 or whatever your baud rate is.
Second what kernel and drivers are you using?  For further help I would
consult the linuxppc-embedded at ozlabs.org they have lots of xilinx
related questions.  Here is the link for viewing old messages
