...but keep in mind on some systems even if you have SRM console set to
serial you can still get a >>> prompt on the graphics adapter.  even tho it
wont be the "console" device, you can actually enter some commands.

With regards to your message at 02:02 PM 5/22/02, Tom Linden. Where you
stated:

On SRM yes.
serial console is the default.
That way if you have no graphics card you are not stuck.
Getting to a term is always easier than finding and installing a video card.
