    The unit is located in Knoxville, TN, 37922-3449.

    It includes the usual stuff(MMJ serial ports for console and printer,
graphics port, ethernet, SCSI-2, status lights, etc) plus a floppy drive and
hard drive(amazing, the innovations these days...).

    It also has an LK401 keyboard that will go along with it.

1. VaxStation 3100-Serial-Console-Netbsd

Hello Vax-Fans!

I tried to install NetBSD 1.4.1 since 1 year without
success.

Does anybody have some experience with this topic?
I managed to netboot the VaxStation from a Linux-box
but after loading the kernel the thing hangs.
I read that the bootmessages are sent to the
serial output, but i never got a connection.
What Pinouts? How to connect? What Plug?
I tried a few things. Nothing worked.

With some kernels (i experimented a little)
pinging the mashine works, but no telnet service.

With the normal NetBSD 1.4.1 netboot-kernel
(i renamed the original Filesystem from boot.fs to netbsd)
pinging the VaxStation does not work after
the 'kernel boot hanging'
Any ideas?

Thanx in advance

Ewald
