I have some DL140's running OpenBSD. The BIOS redirection stops working when OpenBSD starts booting. Kinda sucks since you can't see the boot sequence or go into the BIOS setup from a serial console. Disable the BIOS console redirection and set OpenBSD to redirect the console to com0.

Good point. I just cross checked it. I disabled the serial BIOS and also tried with enabled serial BIOS but with different redirection during/after POST and BOOTLOADER. But non is working. This server has only one serial port so there is no com1 :-( Keep trying Martin This message may contain information that is privileged, confidential and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
