Now, connect RaspberryPi via UART to Your machine. GPIO on the Pi works with 3.3V, so You should make sure, that UART device on the other end is also working wih 3.3V. This is the pinout of the RaspberyPi 3 model B that has been used for testing so far:

## Boot Process
When RaspberryPi boots, it searches the first partition on SD card (which should be formatted FAT) for its firmware and configuration files, loads them and executes them. The firmware then searches for the kernel image file. The name of the looked for file can be kernel.img, kernel7.img, kernel8.img (for 64-bit mode) or something else, depending on configuration and firmware used (rpi-open-firmware looks for zImage).
