On Arch Linux
Code:
Linux daneel 4.3.3-3-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jan 20 08:12:23 CET 2016 x86_64 GNU/Linux
With this serial adpter http://amzn.com/B008RF73CS, I bought mine from Amazon.it
It's a 3.3V/5V Serial Adapter so I used the circuit described here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=162775 with R1 and R2 as 22kΩ

In this code the 'ü' should be 'a' and the 'ó' should be 'b', between should be 's' and 'd'
Code:
Hit any key to stop autoboot:  1  0 
uboot > üüüüüüüüüüü      ööööööóóóóóóó
I already tried to let it upgrade while charging without touching it, literally, for days but it remains in the same state. Should I try again with the serial connected?
