I need to buy a new UART cable.
So, installing the new kernel did work - but i very likely fucked up my initrd's xD And chances are that OpenSBI is giving me useful error messages on the console, but i can't see them, because StarFive2's bootcode shows a splashscreen.
Basically, the bootcode is half of a bios, it passes control to OpenSBI which does the *actual* BIOSing and passes an initialized state to u-boot, which acts as the bootloader for the OS.
Problem is, all the nice and neat output, is on the console, and not on the screen. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh X.x
So, shopping I go. I need this thing. Hopefuly I can find a 40pin Pi-Hat that just converts to a nice cable because plugging smol connectors on smoller pins is a biiiiiiit of a problem for me x.x;
