accessing after setup is doable after a fashion. However, I want to be able to have physical access at the keyboard and CLI prompt. I have already discussed this on the OpenBSD forums and even advised some of the devs of the issue I have and what I would like. A few of them are amendable to the idea but don't know whats available that can be adapted to OpenBSD. I considered BrlTTY first as it happens to be one of the more publicized projects.
anyway, I thought I would ask here. -eric On Jul 8, 2013, at 6:19 PM, Jason White wrote: > eric oyen <[email protected]> wrote: >> The question is fairly straight forward.
