Hi Emmanuel,

yes, I see now u-boot.itb available if installing on aarch64(RockPro64
itself).
root@generic:~ # uname -a                                                  =

root@generic:~ #  ls /usr/local/share/u-boot/u-boot-rockpro64              =

installed on AMD64(maybe compiled from ports, don't remember) I saw this :

well, booting the now created uSD created with files from sysutils I see
garbled output on 115200( as Walter said) :

which seems to mean that it's set to 1500000 what most of cheap USB-UARTs
can't handle.
Should be better to provide a 2019.10-version which can handle 115200..

Regards

Klaus
