[MinnowBoard] Toasted Turbot

Hi all,

I managed to toast my shiny new Turbot. After update to latest UEFI
firmware (X64.0094.R01) the board booted okay, but then I interrupted
the booting linux by pressing the power reset button.
(I had only serial console hooked up then, and only got the 'Grub
loading' messages without any OS messages. So I wanted to hook up HDMI
to get some output).

However, after the next reboot I just got garbage on the serial console,
and the HDMI output remained blank (it didn't even get a synch signal).
Both LED were on, though.

Any ideas how I can resurrect the board?

One of the improvements for the Turbot apparently is a 'NVRAM reset'
jumper on J7 (?), but no documentation is to be had. So I'm not quite
sure if it'll help me here.

Any hints greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Hannes
