Yeah, I got that message.  Not connecting and not getting an serial
console is a bit different.  From the output above it looks like
random garbage on the serial port.

Try connecting to all different serial ports (without uhsoctl running)
with minicom or cu and try typing AT<enter>. (The diagnostic port
doesn't work, so skip that one).
