Dear colleagues,

I'm trying to set up sol console for supermicro servers, reading some documents 
including TestClusterOne, mainly:

> For serial redirection to work, in the BIOS you need to redirect to com port 
> B and in /boot/device.hints you need hint.uart.1.flags="0x10" and enable getty on 
> cuau1 

I can see BIOS screen ok; boot1/2 and boot/loader work fine also.  However, I 
could not see kernel console output via SOL, neither getty on ttyu1 works.
I tried different speeds, std vs 3wire, explicitely set console=comconsole 
vidconsole -- no luck.

I even trued to use `ipmitool sol activate' on one side and `tip -115200 com2' 
on the other -- stiil no data between.

Any hints?

Thanks!

For the reference:
