Did you unplugged the keyboard too? Else try setenv input-device ttya setenv output-device ttya under the OpenPROM monitor. As an alternative, you can pass console=ttya parameter to the kernel (enter, at the monitor prompt: boot cdrom console=ttya). > ... This is a slink cd, so maybe potato would work better? Might be, but I'm sure that slink bootdisks are also working with serial console. Regards. -- Eric Delaunay | S'il n'y a pas de solution, c'est qu'il n'y [EMAIL PROTECTED] | a pas de problème.
