K7SEM Serial Boot Log....What next...

[roger]

This is my setup using kermit.  I prefer kermit over minicom.  I have
yet to be able to get linuxbios booting (due to mtd issues), however,
here's my setup that works with the normal kernel boot.  You might need
to augment the speed to 9600 or 19200 instead of 115200.


/etc/lilo.conf contains:
append="console=ttyS1,115200"

~/.kermrc
set modem type none
set line /dev/ttyS1
set speed 115200
set flow rts/cts
set carrier-watch off

You also need to set the speed of the com port via setserial before
starting minicom or kermit.

ie:

# setserial /dev/ttyS1 baud_base 115200
