By default, the UART is used as the Linux console, this must be disabled to allow general purpose operation.

#!/bin/sh
C=`awk '{ for (i = 1; i <= NF; ++i) { if ($i !~ /ttyAMA0/) { printf $i" " } } printf "\n" }' /boot/cmdline.txt`
echo $C > /boot/cmdline.txt
/boot/config.txt

High speed modes of operation are also not enabled by default and these must be enabled in /boot.
