Hi

My VLC requires a serial console connected to boot, the other night I booted
it up and it took me 10 minutes to realise I couldn't ping it coz the serial
link wasn't connected and it therefore hadn't booted <doh>.

I remember reading a post saying you could fake the presence of a serial
terminal by crossing a couple of pins in the MMJ connector.  Does anyone
have any information, on this?  Has anyone tried building a dummy terminal
with a Basic Stamp or PIC micro controller?

TIA

Dave
