<p>Got my new RPi 3s. So exciting! Connect to my <a href="https://www.adafruit.com/products/954https://www.adafruit.com/products/954">serial cable</a>, fire up <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/serial/id877615577?mt=12">Serial</a> on the Mac, ready to install my normal way, and….garbled garbage.</p>

<p>Turns out some winner in Piland re-used GPIO pins necessary to make serial work for Bluetooth. I guess they figured that no one used serial console?</p>
|

<p>To fix, you’ll need a monitor & keyboard. First follow the instructions <a href="2016-03-13-raspbian-setup-notes.html">here</a> up through “Update firmware” (rpi-update). Then edit /boot/config.txt and add the line:</p>
|
||
|
||
<pre><code>dtoverlay=pi3-disable-bt
|
||
</code></pre>
|
||
|
||
<p>Reboot, and your serial console will work again.</p>
