Update: serial console on Sparc IPX
It turns out that the 'mac printer' cable does the crossover already. I
connected a second null-modem adapter inline with my cable and did get
serial output from the IPX.
I'm posting the entire output below. Unfortunately at this point it
doesn't seem to respond to input from the serial port (I'm running minicom
on the Lintel end of things)
What keycode do I need to send to the IPX to get the openprom to break for
me, being L1-S obviously can't be sent over?
Am I reading the selftest messages correctly and thinking it wants parity
memory and it's erroring because it has non-parity?
