i originally set up my 4511 back in '05.  now i'm trying to reinstall
it.  this is my problem-

i am having a problem with getting minicom to work, that is have
anything displayed in it.
some info first-
cat /etc/minicom/minirc.dfl
# Machine-generated file - use "minicom -s" to change parameters.
pu port             /dev/ttyS0
pu baudrate         19200
pu mdialtime        5
pu rtscts           No
pu mfcolor          WHITE

lilo.conf(partial)-
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/text
serial=0,19200n8
default="linux"
vga=normal
# These images were automagically added. You may need to edit something.

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11
        label=linux
        initrd=/boot/initrd.img-2.6.11
        append="console=tty0 console=ttyS0,19200"
        read-only

it seems like the port and baud is correct, yet nothing.
the last time that i used minicom to get into the box, i would get a
login prompt, or be able to see the boot.
even if the baud wasn't proper something would get displayed across
the screen, usually not very pretty, yet something would show up.
now nothing.

any ideas?
even if i could do a hard reset to the factory defaults i would be
happy so that i could reinstall.

thanx
