Parallella Ubuntu 14.04 release

[Frida]

At last I got my Parallella, preorder #3200. Thank you very much.
First thing, downloaded as described, on a Linux Mint 16, and unpacked.
Then every thing on a 32Gbyte sdcard. Find a hdmi cable and a powersupply. Power on and a finger on the heatsink, and nothing happen. Well after some thought, it was maybe an idea to follow the text, and change the name of

parallella_e16_hdmi_gpiose_7010.bit.bin, to parallella.bit.bin.

Then power on again, and this time I got a screen, where I have to lock in. Power off, find a usb cable and a keyboard and a blower.
Power on again and here I am writting on a Parallella.

Once again thank you very much.

I still seem to have the same problem with USB on this build (Parallella Ubuntu 14.04 release). It just does not work even having implemented the ECO. I would be keen to hear if anyone else is having the same problem still.

Thanks.

As a follow up to my previous problems booting my Parallella, using shodruck's method of rebuilding the device tree to disable serial console was what it took.
