Hello,

judging from the storm of replies I assume that I have a _real_ problem
here??

>>> I get trown off the serial line while entering input during POST <<<

(never mind the typo..) The term "entering" hear means typing characters
in raw mode, not one or more chars followed by an Enter (if that
matters).

By the way, mine is a net5501-70, a brand new model I think.
