Re: Woody on IBM RS/6000 7025 F50
Hello
That's a good test. I'll use that in the future.
Once you have setup the serial port (see other posters answers), you are
connected. You are not
using a modem, so you don't need to do atdt type stuff.

I've configured minicom to use the serial port, and have configured
minicom to use the port with 9600 8N1, but (stupid user level
question...) how do I actually connect? Should minicom connect
automatically on startup, or do I have to issue a command or something?
Just for the record, I've verified that my null-modem cable works between
two Linux machines:
cat < /dev/ttyS0 # on machine 1
echo hello > /dev/ttyS0 # on machine 2
hello # on machine 1
