a friend of mine is considering buying a ds5000/20 for dirt cheap. I'm
going to do a netbsd install for him, since he totally alcks facilities.
what I'm wondering is whether/how I can get the maxine to utilize a serial
console. is there any trick to this? I know the alpha's automagically
sense taht there's no keybd or mouse and switch over, but I recall
trying to use a serial console on a 5000/25 and being unsuccessful.
TIA,
nathan
