You want to send a break over the serial line.  This involes some sort
of escape character sequence with the terminal emulator.  Eg, with tip
this is a newline followed by ~#, with kermit its ^\b.

It might be a good idea to put a working UP kernel on it with the DDB
options and BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER to familiarize yourself with how to send 
the break, etc.

Cheers,

Drew
