hm... I don't think thats the case, since I'm able to see the whole
bootprocess of this box. The only thing missing is my login prompt ;)
Additionally, this is a HP Blade with iLo, so it's just a "emulated"
serial port. No adapters or wiring there.

I did a kill -HUP 1 to have them paramters changed.
The 3write makes no different to std.9600
marian46-23# ps ax | grep ttyd
1067 ?? I 0:00.00 /usr/libexec/getty 3wire.9600 ttyd1
1068 d0 Is+ 0:00.00 /usr/libexec/getty 3wire.9600 ttyd0

Okay, it's off now:
marian46-23# ps ax | grep ttyd
1083 p1 R+ 0:00.00 grep ttyd
marian46-23# stty -a -f /dev/ttyd0

hm...
I'm not sure what to do with those informations ;)
Ideas left anyone?
It's really really strange that I can see the whole boot process but
don't have a login prompt in the end. strange.
