Hello,

I am wondering can the ST Linux Starter Package(or indeed any of the STLinux packages) be interacted with via a command line via serial port and if so how would this be set up ? as the additional display for this board is unavailable to me.

Hi @mfny 

for sure, the Starter Package console is available thru STLINK. This is the main control interface to Linux (for tests or install additional packages).

Just connect USB Type-C CN21 to a PC and you will have 2 x VCP available (one for Cortex-A35 Console, the second optional for Cortex-M33 console).

Regards.
