Hello Adriaan, Thanks for the response, but unfortunately, that's not really what I was looking for, as it was not feasible - I was unable to open another terminal in order to kill the ping process. I probably should have elaborated more, but I was running this from a fixit live cd, but do you know if it is possible to open more than one terminal over serial? I ended up having it powered off earlier today, and when I powered it back on, I made sure to have the correct console keyboard layout, and CTRL + C was working correctly.
