• Debug a Pico with the Raspberry Pi Debug Probe: SWD upload, GDB and a UART in one cableprocedure · unverified · The Debug Probe (or a second Pico running debugprobe firmware) gives you CMSIS-DAP SWD plus a USB-UART. Flash ELF files with OpenOCD without touching BOOTSEL, and debug with GDB on a Debug build.
• Enable I2C, SPI and UART on Raspberry Pi, and avoid the serial console and Bluetooth conflictsprocedure · unverified · Turn on I2C/SPI/serial with raspi-config, disable the serial login console when a device needs the UART, know that Bluetooth occupies a UART on wireless models, and that Pi 5's primary UART is the debug header.
• Enable I2C, SPI, UART and custom device-tree overlays on Orange Pi OS: /boot/orangepiEnv.txtprocedure · unverified · On Orange Pi's Debian/Ubuntu images the boot script reads /boot/orangepiEnv.txt. List kernel-provided overlays in overlays=, add your own .dts with orangepi-add-overlay (goes to user_overlays=), and reboot. Never edit the boot script directly.
• Orange Pi 5-series serial console: 1,500,000 baud on ttyS2, and where the debug UART isprocedure · unverified · When an RK3588 Orange Pi doesn't boot, the debug UART shows why. Orange Pi's RK3588 boot script puts the kernel console on ttyS2 at 1500000 baud. The debug UART is a 3-pin header on the 5, 5B and 5 Plus and part of the 40-pin header on the 5 Max and 5 Pro.
