Linux boot failed on Sandpoint under baudrate 38400

[Mark A. Greer]

What do you mean by garbled?  Do you mean the characters look okay but some
seem to be missing or just a bunch of strange characters?

The kernel, the bootloader, and DINK all need to be set up for the same baud
rate.  It sounds like you have dink and the bootloader setup for one baud rate
and the kernel is probably still at 9600.  Could that be the case?
