I don't think so, since the stock /etc/ttys has console "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" vt100 on secure constty "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" vt100 off secure and I have made no change to that on my machines. I have made no changes to boot.cfg any other configuration file, either, but I do have the boot block configured to use a serial console (as in installboot -e -o console=com0). I always use crossover cables that ensure CD is asserted by wiring both DSR and CD to the DTR pin of the other end, but if yours doesn't, I would have thought the "local" keyword in /etc/ttys would take care of that. Or maybe you need to use "softcar" instead? -- Andreas Gustafsson, g...@gson.org
