OK cool. One thing to mention is serial consoles are not always 9600bps, |
12 |
and this can cause problems if it is hard set. The way the regular init |
13 |
system works now is fine for sparcs in regards to handling the speed. |

For sparcs, you don't even need to provide any additional boot arguments |
16 |
to a kernel for serial console as the output redirection is handled by |

OBP. |
