Thanks for the info guys, I read a little bit of the HOW-TO from one of the other posts I received, and I will be playing with that tonight.
Charles, I don't know if you remember but you helped me awhile back get the serial console working, and I have felt silly ever since for never verifying that my cable was good. Since then, the serial console has worked flawlessly. Thanks again for the support then...

The small kernel has serial support, it's just not compiled in.
