What kernel are you running? This is ok for a 2.2.x kernel but wrong for
a 2.0.x kernel.
2.0.x kernels must be set to 38400 and spd_vhi in /etc/rc.d/rc.serial

Only if you start a getty on /dev/ttyS0. This is a good test so enable it
in your /etc/inittab file.
This is how I did it on my Linux box (again.. this is ALL covered in the
TrinityOS doc)
