We have some Dell PowerEdge 1550s that do this (nice machines, but horribleb bootstones). But I've got a basic problem with console redirection on PCs that we don't see on Alphas or Suns. The problem is that I cannot figure out how in the hell to hit "F2" in my environment. My environment is essentially telnet'ing into a console server from an xterm. Hitting "Ctrl-A" for the scsi bios works just fine & dandy.. Anybody know how to make ansi function keys work from an xterm?
