Some questions:
1:
What settings do I need on my terminal to see the VAX's output?
(speed, parity, databits, etc. i.e. what are the VAX's standard settings?)
2:
How do I connect a serial tty (RS-232) to the !*&#! weird connectors at the
back of the VAXstation 3100? (weird kind of RJ-11 phone-jack?)
3:
Which of these ports should I connect the terminal to?
Response would be greatly appreciated, since we're running out of ideas.
Our VAX booted up to Multi-user mode, but after a failed attempt to make it
boot from SCSI-disk it won't reach that state again.
My next best guess was to connect a tty to see kernel output.
