It prints unrecognizable characters, but I could recognize the red beastie logo. On the hdmi screen I have no output. Can you confirm the serial speed line? It was 115200 when I saw all that, and then tried 1500000 and despite it was printing something that looks like the boot, just weird characters appeared.
