OK, should be fine then. How do you make the connection? I use something like: soekris|For hp300,i386,mac68k,macppc,mvmeppc,vax:\ :dv=/dev/tty00:tc=direct:tc=unixhost: in /etc/remote and 'tip soekris' to connect to it. >Should Soekrisises error led lit up if there would be some problem or >something. Now the only light that stays on is the 'power'. On the 4501, it's on when you turn it on and it goes off during the POST. Maurice
