GENERIC-MMCCAM built and installed without error but breaks to ddb when the
kernel tries to load [1] I can see it by attaching a screen to HDMI. I have an 
FTDI usb serial device converter (built into the serial cable) is there any way 
i can grab output from there? or is the output written somewhere on the card 
where I can look at it?

[1] in other words it passes the u-boot phase, gets past where it detects cpu,
then loads of errors zoom off the screen nd then ddb> prompt
