No kernel debug output via serial ttyUSB0

Hi,
I bought a bubblegum-96 board from taobao (https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09.2.0.0.wzDG5y&id=536630380164&_u=27ubovub607). No UART debug board was provided…So I used UART USB convert to connect PIN 1(GND), PIN 11 and PIN 13.
I use SD-Card upgrade method to install debian image, and could got the debug output message of firmware and u-boot for each reboot. But I could NOT get any kernel output like “Starting Kernel…” via serial (BTW: I could see kernel message output in the HDMI screen tty0). Do I need connect more PIN beside PIN 1,11,13?
Please see my output via serial in below:

This log looks pretty much the same are your u-boot log… does that mean your changes to u-boot has fixed this issue too?

Hi danielt,
just like my reply in another post, the serial console only print u-boot message like above, and will stop to output anything including kernel message log after “MMC: sourc”…
