Well we are in final RC5 now with production on the 9th!

The uboot developer has HDMI working now, but we won't see it until F22 
beta.  It needs the current development uboot and a 3.19 kernel (current 
Rawhide kernel is 3.18).  Reverse engineering what Allwinner did for 
video was considered 'HARD' on the Sunxi uboot website.  He also has a 
sata multiplexer!  He told me to be patient :)

For the serial console, some are reporting things are working in the 
latest release, but I am still doing the following:

Mount the SD card after the build then:

vi /.../__boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf

append:

console=ttyS0,115200

to the append line.

save this then do your first boot on your A10.  BTW, I am using the 
Cubieboard2 and Cubietrucks which are A20 boards.  So I also want my CT 
WiFi and BT to work.  Patience grasshopper...
