EHCI debugging

+ +

+ Some libreboot systems lack serial ports, so you have to use the debug port (USB) instead. + The BeagleBone can be configured for this. It may involve compiling a patched kernel. +

+ +

+ Work is in progress to implement this, and document it in libreboot. These are just some preliminary notes. +

+<tty0_> stefanct,  1) plug the the BBB to a running system first and make sure you see it as "Netchip" (with lsusb).  if that is correct (i.e you have BBB > ver1 ) , you have to rebuild coreboot/libreboot with Net20DB instead of BBB as debug dongle
+<stefanct> tty0_: the coreboot config is clear to me... it fails to show up in lsusb already
+<tty0_> on BBB, unload all the modules, then modprobe g_dbgp
+<tty0_> ... and when i siad lsusb, you do that on the target system, not on BBB
