Bering-uClibc 5.x - Overview

Changes between 5.0.1 and 5.0.2-beta1

(unreleased)

general 
uncomment ttyS1 for serial images. It floods daemon.log with errors if no ttyS1 is available.
Usually ttyS0 should be enough to boot and configure the box.
The vga versions now has the new LEAF logo as bootlogo; the boot process is paused for three seconds, where changes to the
commandline before starting the boot process are possible ("Press any key in the pause").
The menu also provides an entry to start a harwdare test and information tool.
Serial images are unchanged.
