Re: netra LOM serial port



The last time I tried (almost 2 years ago) the LOM serial port was
not supported by Linux. Actually, LOM was not supported at all by Linux
(I'd be interested to hear if it is now).

I used the regular serial port. If the machine is set up to do a
network boot it does not always respond to a break: you may need
many break attempts before one succeeds.
