OK, on the MS-6178 I can say for sure that serial output works in LinuxBIOS. Quick minicom tutorial: $ minicom -s -> Serial port setup -> Press A and enter your COM device (ttyS0 or ttyS1 or ttyUSB0 or so) -> Press E and choose "115200 8N1" (default) -> Disable Hardware and Software Flow Control (via F and G) -> Press enter to leave the menu -> Save setup as.. -> Enter "lb" -> Exit from minicom So, from now on you can use this config like this: $ minicom -o lb > > Did you get it _that_ small?

It's an i815 chipset which is similar, but not quite the same as i810. Some more work is probably needed for that. > lspnp: /proc/bus/pnp not available Strange. Maybe you have to enable some "PnP" option in the BIOS for lspnp to work?
