You wont need to write down all registers. Ok.

Serial console seems to be *very* handy at all. I'm not yet that far to use DECstation's own keyboard (which is btw a serial device-:-) How's that done? "console=tty0 console=ttyS0"? Another thing is stability. I'm currently using Karsten's glibc2.2 based debian base filesystem which is not that much fun on a R3k (-> ll/sc and sysmips - any solution at horizon?). Binaries tend to SIGBUS, Illegal Insn, ... But everything will be good at some point:-) Some hints on serial keyboard would be nice! Karsten? MfG, JBG
