It's been a while, but I played with one of those boxes during our (ir-)regular C0d3 & b33r sessions. The console was set up to use 9600bps, 8N1 - so you could either connect with minicom, or with cu, as I usually, since it's there by default. Naturally, you'll need a null modem cable, yes. cu -s 9600 -l /dev/cuaa[0-9] usually does the trick for me. > > If using the CF card in the machine how did you find out what was the > device name of your USB writer.
