Hi,

I've got a SM board with onboard IPMI 2.0 proving SerialOverLan as
remote console.
The IPMI serial port is the third, on address 3e8.
All three ports show up in prtconf, as asy instance #0, #1 and #2.
And in /dev/term I've got a, b and c.

To ease debugging I reduced the baudrate from 115200 to 9600 in the BIOS.

Does SOL work? Yes, I can see the bios, hba bios and the grub menu.
All before mentioned stages respond to the keyboard, I can navigate
the menus for example.

Things I've changed to get sofar:
-commented out any splashimage, foreground and background lines in
/rpool/boot/grub/menu.lst
-added two lines to the top of menu.lst
serial --unit=2 --speed=9600
terminal --timeout=20 serial
-I created a copy off the default boot entry in menu.lst and named it oi_serial
kernel /platform/i86pc/multiboot -B console=ttyc,ttyc-mode="9600,n,8,1,-"
-in /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc I duplicated the ttyb entries and changed
ttyb into ttyc.
setprop ttyc-rts-dtr-off false
setprop ttyc-ignore-cd
setprop ttyc-mode 9600,8,n,1,-
setprop console text
-in /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc I also tried setprop console 'ttyc' but
still no console

All this on oi_148.

It must be something obvious but the documentation regarding this
topic is scarce.
Any help on getting this working would be most appreciated.

regards,

frederik
