* On Mac, Install the [http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP/MacOSX/FTDIUSBSerialDriver_v2_2_14.dmg FTDI driver], download [http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3022105/Amahi/sheeva/Info.plist.patch Info.plist.patch] to your desktop, then run the following commands to connect to the SheevaPlug console:
sudo patch -p0 < ~/Desktop/Info.plist.patch
sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext
sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext
screen /dev/tty.usbserial-[TAB]B 115200
For [TAB], hit the TAB key; the value there will be unique to each SheevaPlug computer, so TAB will allow you to auto-fill the correct value. Once connected, if you want to close your terminal session, hit Ctrl-A followed by Ctrl-K. You'll be asked if you're sure you want to kill this window; just say yes!
* Reset the device from the JTAG module (Mouton says: how? I tried to push the button, but that doesn't seem to reset the device... Do you mean login using the terminal emulator, and issue a reboot command..?)
* At the terminal, press enter a couple of seconds after boot to prevent it from booting using the onboard flash (Ubuntu). You should end up with a ''Marvell>>'' prompt.
* Insert USB Flash Drive into the plug.
* Once this is complete, the JTAG module can be disconnected. There will be no need for serial connection any longer. Once the USB Flash Drive is connected and the plug booted, you will be able to connect via SSH (default root password is "fedoraarm").
