Hi,

now I found my problem: I used a gender changer because I had no
female serial plug but this one mirrored the pins from the left to the
right side. I resoldered everything and now it works.
With minicom 2.5 I get now the text Minicom2.5#���b�B�š��Ű��60** (it's
not always the same and it is not only 60).

Following http://projects.goldelico.com/p/gta04-main/page/SerialBoot/
I can access the device.
Booting from sd card fails nevertheless (tried 2 different cards, a
512MB and a 8GB one).

GTA04 # mmcinfo

Card did not respond to voltage select!
Device: OMAP SD/MMC
Manufacturer ID: 0
OEM: 0
Name: Tran Speed: 0
Rd Block Len: 0
MMC version 0.0
High Capacity: No
Capacity: 0
Bus Width: 1-bit

Any idea?

Jens
