Come on, minicom is by large the most used terminal program on Linux,
and I suppose u-boot should work with it. Don't tell me that I'm the
only one using it - nearly EVERYONE who works with serial hardware
(terminal servers, serve consoles, embedded boards) does it with minicom
today, and u-boot is the only firmware I've seen problems with so far.
