Why you would do that?
Look for that SCN2681 chip (below other ICs or below the rtVAX brick)
and trace the serial lines. (for sure there is such a beast).

..then apply power to that board, connectors should be easy to get,
even the pinout for the power lines at the bus.


BTW: for those that want to actual help me looking at the code,
I've mapped the entire build three with all the files I use to the
webserver jail (readonly nullfs).
