If you have some trouble to get your USB3 stick detected during boot, swap it for a USB2. In anycase working with SD card is faster to flash and to boot. SD should be prefered. The Joule seems to refuse to boot with my SD-HC-I type cards while I had no problem with the Minnow. If you work with a Joule, use regular SD-HC (mode 4 and 10 work fine) - ## Serial debug Port -Serial debug port ID varies with the HW platform :<br> -By default AGL build Intel target as a Minnowboard where serial is /dev/ttyS0 <br> -On Joule and MRB the serial debug is /dev/ttyS2 <br> +Serial debug port ID varies with the HW platform : +By default AGL build Intel target as a Minnowboard where serial is /dev/ttyS0 +On Joule and MRB the serial debug is /dev/ttyS2 You may have to change the configuration in your boot loader which is located in the EFI partition. ## Serial debug cable -On the Minnowboard the serial cable is a FTDI serial cable.
