-            <p>
-                Some libreboot systems lack serial ports, so you have
to use the debug port (USB) instead.
-                The BeagleBone can be configured for this. It may
involve compiling a patched kernel.
-            </p>

-            <p>
-                Work is in progress to implement this, and document
it in libreboot. These are just some preliminary notes.

+        <p>If your computer does not boot after installing libreboot, it is
+            very useful to get debug logs from it, from the payload
(grub) and/or
+            the kernel (if gets to there). All of them stream debug logs on the
+            available serial (RS-232) by default. However, most of
todays laptops
+            lack RS-232 port. The other option is to stream the logs
to USB EHCI
+            debug port.</p>
+        <p>This section explains step-by-step how to setup BBB as a
+            &#8220;USB EHCI debug dongle&#8221; and configure libreboot and the
+            linux kernel to stream logs to it (TODO: grub).</p>
+        <p>I will refer to three computers:</p>
+        <ul>
+            <li><b>host</b> - this is the computer you use, have
+                tools, compiler, Internet, etc</li>
+            <li><b>BBB</b> - Beaglebone Black (rev. B or higher, i
+                use rev. C)</li>
+            <li><b>target</b> - the computer you are trying to
+                install liberboot</li>
+        </ul>
+        <h3 id="FindUSBportonthetargetthatsupportsEHCIdebug">Find USB port
+            on the target that supports EHCI debug</h3>
+        <p>
+            Not all USB controllers support EHCI debug (see: <a
+
href="http://www.coreboot.org/EHCI_Debug_Port#Hardware_capability";>EHCI
+                Debug Port</a> ). Even more, if a USB controller
supports EHCI debug, it
+            is available only <b>on a single port</b> that might or might
+            not be exposed externally.
+        </p>
+        <ul>
+            <li>You need running OS (GNU/Linux) on your target for this step
+                (If you&#8217;ve flashed libreboot and it does not
boot, you have to
+                flush back the stock bios)</li>
+            <li>You need USB memory stick (the data on it will not be
+                touched).</li>
+            <li>The EHCI debugging can not be done through external hub, BBB
+                must be connected directly to the debug port of the
controller (so, no

+        <p>
+            (On BBB) The linux kernel includes module (g_dbgp that
enables one of the usb ports on a computer to behave as EHCI
+            debug dongle. Make sure you have this module available on your BBB
+            (Debian 7.8 that comes with BBB should have it), if not, you should
+            compile it yourself (see next section):

-from #coreboot
-&lt;tty0_&gt; stefanct,  1) plug the the BBB to a running system
first and make sure you see it as "Netchip" (with lsusb).  if that is
correct (i.e you have BBB > ver1 ) , you have to rebuild
coreboot/libreboot with Net20DB instead of BBB as debug dongle
-&lt;stefanct&gt; tty0_: the coreboot config is clear to me... it
fails to show up in lsusb already
-&lt;tty0_&gt; on BBB, unload all the modules, then modprobe g_dbgp
-&lt;tty0_&gt; ... and when i siad lsusb, you do that on the target
system, not on BBB
-
-&lt;tty0_&gt; fchmmr, the kernel should be compiled with:
CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK_DBGP=y to output on EHCI debug:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/USBearlyprintk
-
-&lt;tty0_&gt; stefanct, carldani: Note that the script has small bug
in the last for loop:  for dev in &quot;$debug_dmesg_devs&quot;; do
...
-&lt;stefanct&gt; tty0_: had ;)
-&lt;stefanct&gt; carldani: ok that's what i was expecting, thanks
-* ob-sed has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds)
-&lt;tty0_&gt; On the wiki there are links to two scripts, the updated
one has bug
-&lt;tty0_&gt; $debug_dmesg_devs should not be quoted
-&lt;tty0_&gt; ... if there are multiple controllers with debug, $dev
will be assgined &lt;controller1 controller2&gt; instead of iterating
throug each of them
-&lt;stefanct&gt; i have seen your conversation with mtjm earlier
-&lt;stefanct&gt; that's the reason why i was working on usb debug
today at all :)
-&lt;stefanct&gt; idwer: ping
-&lt;carldani&gt; tty0_: indeed, this was a bug.
-&lt;stefanct&gt; carldani: the most annoying thing about lsusb... the
debug device is actually missing from lsusb -t as i have found out
today
-&lt;tty0_&gt; It shows only ports that have something attached to
them, because of that you have to go with usb stick through all the
ports and run the script each time
-&lt;stefanct&gt; tty0_: lsusb without the -t shows the debug
device... but doesnt print the port number
