Hi
 I just got a 425 working (netbooted) and need some info on my
serial port options. I have many suns that i would like serial console of. 
 
 I know that there is a serial mux board available for this 425. Question
is whether netbsd would support all 8 ports coming off it.

 How come there are so many dcm ports, 1 dca port, and then the apci
ports, and what is their usages?

 Thanks


Chris
