NetworkSpace: Serial Port Access

Assuming that the pinning described in this thead could fit on the pins of the Networkspace PCB, I measured the voltage on the pins. I measured 5 volts on the pin near the screw hole, and ground on the next. So I assume the pinning 1 VCC (+5V) 2 GND 3 JTAG TMS : input to board 4 JTAG TCK : input to board 5 JTAG TDO : output from board 6 JTAG TDI : input to board 7 Serial RxD : input to board 8 Serial TxD : output from board is correct, counting from the screw hole. With my 3.3 volts TTL serial-to-USB converter connect to GND, RxD and TxD, I got this bootlog: à Bootstrap 02.09 __ __                      _ _         |  \/  | __ _ _ ____   _____| | |         | |\/| |/ _` | '__\ \ / / _ \ | |         | |  | | (_| | |   \ V /  __/ | |         |_|  |_|\__,_|_|    \_/ \___|_|_|  _   _     ____              _ | | | |   | __ )  ___   ___ | |_ | | | |___| _ \ / _ \ / _ \| __|  | |_| |___| |_) | (_) | (_) | |_   \___/    |____/ \___/ \___/ \__|  ** LOADER **  ** MARVELL BOARD: RD-88F6082-MICRO-DAS-NAS LE  U-Boot 1.1.4 (Feb  8 2008 - 09:08:25) Lacie version: 2.4.2-TINY U-Boot code: 00200000 -> 0023EE00  BSS: -> 0024D2D0 Soc: 88F6082 A1 (DDR1) CPU running @ 333Mhz  SysClock = 166Mhz, TClock = 133Mhz  DRAM CS[0] base 0x00000000   size   8MB  DRAM CS[1] base 0x00800000   size   8MB  DRAM Total size  16MB  16bit width Memory test pattern: 0x55555555, 0xAAAAAAAA,  Pass [256kB@f8100000] Flash: 256 kB Addresses 4M - 0M are saved for the U-Boot usage.
