By default, the serial console provides access to
* kernel console
* bootloader command line interface
== Kernel console ==
The kernel console with full root access, provides the most powerful access gate to the CM-FX6 module.
== Bootloader command line interface ==
Prior to kernel boot, the serial console provides the '''U-Boot''' bootloader command line interface, which enables modification of kernel boot arguments. 
Upon power on, U-Boot performs a short countdown (default 3 seconds), prior to proceeding to kernel boot. 
Press ENTER to stop the countdown, and access the command line interface. Type in '''boot''' to proceed to kernel boot.

== Connecting to serial console ==
The serial console is routed to the P60 RS232 jack on the SB-FX6 base board. 
The line speed is 115200 bps.
