Yes, that’s correct. The installed system doesn’t come up.
It gets to “Starting Kernel” and hangs. No more output on the console after
that. I waited several minutes.

Just to be clear: This will set the console variable with baud rate, but only
temporarily. The “run bootcmd” at the end will cause it to do a “normal” boot,
but with that console setting.
Looking at the “cubox1.log” I attached previously, which has the output of
“printenv” from the installed system, after interrupting the u-boot at the “Hit
any key…” point: I see
console=ttymxc0
so it seems possible that it just needs a baud rate added and all would be well…

This will make the console variable with baudrate a permanent part of the
environment, right?
Do I need to do anything after the “saveenv”? Like reset or power-cycle the
box? Some older ARM hardware I’ve used seemed to have those kinds of quirks.
Do I just type “run bootcmd” at that point?
