Yes, that seems to be the case. I initially assumed something might
actually reconfigure the serial port in the IPL, but I can't find any
evidence in support.
I think I am seeing two problems:
1) Pasting strings doesn't work on either the PDC console or the
IPL/Linux console.
2) Whereas typing on the PDC console works fine, even at some speed,
the same is not true for the IPL/Linux console, which lose many
characters along the way, and act as if the connection is
temporarily lost. Switching the client side terminal program
(I tested with minicom, picocom, screen) makes no difference.
Do serial cables deteriorate over time? :-)
