[Etherboot-developers] Serial Port Debugging

[Timothy L. <tl...@ro...>]

Hi

I am getting somewhat fustrated with trying to get the serial port debugging working.  Here what I have done:

1) Enabled the Serial Console in Config (I assume there is only one spot)
2) Run minicom, with the same speed and the /dev/ttyS0 or /dev/ttyS1 port, 8N1 and ANSI.  (The status bar for minicom says Offline, is this normal).

I had purchased a 9 to 25 pin null modem serial cable, nothing seemed to work.

Today, I purchased a 9 to 9 pin seial cable and a Null Modem adapter, nothing seems to work.

I have deleted /dev/modem and /dev/mouse, so they are not interfering.

Any ideas?
