Re: ``Incosistent console''



  I think is says somewhere in sun documentation that you can do the
 equivalent to Stop-A by sending a break.

 If your console/terminal/whatever don't have the capability to send a
 break you should be able to simulate one by unplugging the serial
 cable for a second.
