 +I change into:

 +  setenv tty "​ttymxc0,​115200"​
 +  setenv mmcdev 0

 +After install the package **dev-embedded/​u-boot-tools** I do:

 +
 +After I do my ext4 part with rootfs.tar.bz2 content into my second uSD partition. Or other system keeping the **/​lib/​modules/​** at the first time util I do my own kernel. FAT32 on first part with:
 +  * boot.scr
 +  * kernel.img
