Another option you could try is serial console. The motherboard has a serial port, so all you would need is a USB->Serial adapter and null modem cable for your laptop.

Unfortunately, that motherboard (like most desktop boards) doesn't support bios over serial redirection. -- SuperQ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SuperQ's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2139 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50473 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
