Thanks Mateusz, I have the the ARCHs definitions properly set in the config file, so this is not an issue. What I saw is that you're not initializing the 2nd partition which I did in the past and it worked. Hence I will try again with just 1 partition, I have set my console speed in the board BIOS to 9600 bps. If not successful again. I will set both to 38400.
