Hope all is well for members on the list. I have a Enterprise 250 and am having problems getting FreeBSD installed on the box. I know I have to use the serial console to install, due to lack of support for Sun keyboards/terminals. My box does not have a floppy drive on it, so booting via CD is my only option. Has anybody made an install CD ISO that has the required boot options enabled to use the serial port as the console device so I can get FreeBSD installed on my machine, or any other options/pointers for me? Thanks in advance for everything! Sincerely, Brandon
