2.3. Setting Up U-Boot Parameters
The first step is to connect the host machine and the VAB-820 through the COM 2
connector (J5). Use a serial port communication program such as PuTTY, GtkTerm, or
Minicom to configure serial port setting and connect to the debug console. There you will
be able to see the U-Boot boot log and adjust settings in the U-Boot console.
