I also fired up an ancient PC laptop and tried hyperterm (had to use the same USB dongle; it doesn't have a physical serial port either). I got the exact same issue with flow control set to 'none', 'xon/xoff', and 'hardware'.

I don't think it's flow control related, nor terminal emulator. I'm thinking it's soekris serial-console related, or something weird like the memstick image being set to some hardwired defaults that are very different from the soekris console setup.

Ideas welcome,
David,
I generally use 9600 bps for a serial console. Not sure if this makes a big difference for a Soekris, since my serial console experience is limited to Cisco and Sun. Try perhaps minicom as well, it's what I use and has never let me down. In minicom config, try setting 9600 bps as your rate.

Good luck,
Matt
