Thanks, Kevin. I've connected to other Sun boxen before. ;) I have a
Netra T1, a SparcStation 20, an Ultra 5, and they all work fine. I just
got my hands on this E420R, which was supposedly working.
I'm afraid I've got a bad component somewhere and it's choking before it
gets to OpenBoot. I'm just hoping there's some silly thing I'm not
thinking of. I'm much rather say "Doh!" right now than try to isolate
the problem blind.
FYI, I've tried both serial A and B, using 9600-8-N-1. I get nothing. No
garbabe chars. Just nothing.
