You can boot your SS20 and get the openboot output on the serial console? You need to issue a BREAK signal during the boot process (e.g. memory check) - this will stop booting and put you into the openboot environment (PC talk: BIOS). Don't know out of my head how to do this with minicom. Should be possible.

Sparc hardware will send console to serial A automatically if the keyboard is not connected. Make sure you unplug the keyboard.

Go to 'cOnfigure Minicom', select 'Serial port setup' then
specify which serial port (on LOCAL machine) and speed etc
you're using.

Go to 'cOnfigure Minicom', select 'Modem and dialing' then
select 'A' ('Init string') and remove everything that's there.
Then you won't get the "Initialising modem"...

Are you using port A (first serial port) on the SPARC? if not,
what port have you/is specified as 'output-device' and/or
'input-device'?
