...but for this... i've a PC attached via serial line to a SS10, and
also my SS10 hangs (i found now and then the ``ok'' prom prompt).
Simply i've noticed that halt/boot my PC with serial connected send in
some way a BREAK signal to serial line, and BREAK in serial console
language are interpreted as Stop-A.
Now i live with serial cable disconnected, i plug these only if needed
and my SS10 have month of uptime... ;)))
