Re: [Serial console not quite working?]
I've seen this as well with the CP1400 (not the CP1500). I think it is improper OBP initialization of the ports, but I can't recall what led me to that conclusion. With the CP1400, interestingly enough, I believe I can send an initial break if the serial console is on another Sun box but not a PC (regardless of the OS).

Serial console not quite working?
I'm curious if others have had this problem. It appears that the serial console for our Ultra 30 doesn't accept input until a kernel gets loaded. I can even send a Break signal, and it won't be noticed until SILO has loaded and started executing a kernel. Needless to say, this can cause trouble if I want to select a kernel image to load at boot time.. If anyone knows of a workaroun other than plugging in a keyboard/monitor, I'd like to hear about it. -- Mike Hicks [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unix Support Assistant| Carlson School of Management Office: 1-160 Phone: 6-7909 | University of Minnesota pgpznPFeyOR3i.pgp Description: PGP signature
