Amazing amazing.  That worked.  Boots like a charm!

Although serial port access is not my main concern at this point, I cannot type anything into the Hyperterminal console.  I can see ..

--
syslogd: starting log daemon...
ssh: starting daemon...

OpenBSD/i386 (p2pvpn) (tty00)

login: _

--

.. but cannot type anything into it.

My hyperterminal settings are 19200 8-N-1 and NO flow control.

Do I have the right settings? Why can't I type into console?

Thanks again,
Jonnas
