Hi

I have a VAXstation 3100 (M30 I think, it says VS42A-BC on the back),
which I'm trying to get up and running so I can put NetBSD on it.

Trouble is I'm not getting any console output, and 2 of those little
diagnostic lamps on the back keeps burning (1&7) after the rest has turned
off and that worries me :(
Anybody know what they mean?

I am using a serial console (Wyse WY-120) and I have switched the little
button next to the tty-port (the one with the 2 arrows) UP.
Terminal settings are 9600,7E,1

Cable layout is:
DB25	20	2	3	7	6&8
MMJ	1	2	5	3&4	6	

Is my VAX ready for the dumpster or is there still hope?

Regards,
