Hi,
I am trying to install NetBSD 1.6.2 on a Digital Alphastation 200.
The cd is broken, so I am trying to install over a serial line
connected to a Linux machine.
My problem is getting the connection to work. First of all I am
not sure which /dev/tty? corresponds to the serial port. A search
of the archives gave the suggestion /dev/ttyB0 but trying
# slattach /dev/ttyB0
slattach: /dev/ttyB0: Device not configured
other /dev/ttys give similar error messages, except /dev/ttyC0
where the slattach works, but I still get no connection.
Any suggestions appreciated!
