I'm running serial console on these toys now. No problem here. BTW Beware of the shitty virtual CD/Floppy drives on the server. There is no way to turn them off from BIOS. Had no luck with hints either. 5.3 fails to boot on them so don't even try it. 5.4 spits out some warning messages during boot about them but then runs fine. Don't know about CURRENT. /S -- Sławek Żak / UNIX Systems Administrator
