Hi All
I've just got two VS3100/M42 machines. They both have monitors but no
mice so I'm trying to (eventually) netboot them to NetBSD/vax. My first
step was to try and get the serial consoles working. So I got an MMJ to
MMJ lead, a H8571-A adapter which is from what I have found out an
adapter from DEConnect to a VT* terminal. I connected an origial VT100
to it and switched switch S1 (on the VS) down. I get nothing, but from
the graphics console it will get to the monitor prompt no problem. I
just wondered if anyone could shed any light on this.
Thanks in Advance
