Re: Warning: unable to open an initial console.

["young dave" <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com>]

Hi;
The errno "-6" is defined as:
#define ENXIO            6      /* No such device or address*/

You can try to retrieve the rootfs and add the necessary device file
to it, then reflash the rootfs.

I'm Sorry, I  have no embedded environment to test.

Regards
dave
