Just use a crossed cable.
I prefer to run cu instead of minicom (I hate the minicom menus):
cu -l ttyS0 -s 9600
Add
console=ttyS0
to the kernel command line.
Add
aux true
baud 9600
to the `header' section of /etc/lilo.conf (and rerun lilo).
Add
T0:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 9600 vt100
to /etc/inittab.
