The only feasible way to install the complete system to my laptop is via the serial port. There are several questions in the FAQ but no step by step instructions. I am new to the Unix o/s and need a resource to help with the install. I have a desk top with freebsd on it and a 486dx laptop that I want to "hack" on. How do I configure my desk top and my laptop (with the minimal install of Free BSD) to net work threw the serial port so I can install the complete o/s?
