I recently got a DECstation 5000/125 and I'm trying to get Linux to run. I'm using minicom and while I get output from the machine, I can not type anything on the prom. When I power the machine on, I get: KN02-BA V5.7e ?TFL: #0 PMAGB-BA PATT: 5: Red screen Test 3/misc/kbd ?STF (4: Ln#0 Kbd self test) 3/misc/mouse ?STF (4: Ln#1 Pntr self test) >> When I type anything, nothing happens at all. When I press the reset button (or whatever it's called), the machine boots NetBSD: V5.7e (PC: 0xbfc00cbc, SP: 0xa000feb4) >> NetBSD/pmax Secondary Boot, Revision 1.0 >> (root@vlad, Sat Mar 4 14:34:30 EST 2000) Boot: 3/rz2/netbsd The funny thing is that I _can_ type when NetBSD is being started. But nothing happens on the prom. What can I do? FWIW, dmesg on NetBSD says: DECstation 5000/125 (3MIN) real mem = 33554432 avail mem = 27136000 using 819 buffers containing 3354624 bytes of memory mainbus0 (root) cpu0 at mainbus0: cpu0: MIPS R3000 CPU Rev. 3.0 with MIPS R3010 FPC Rev. 3.0 -- Martin Michlmayr tbm@cyrius.com
