I was thinking it just picked a different serial port for ttyS0 output. That's why I waited a couple of minutes to see if I could ping/ssh to the box. But after two minutes it still didn't respond and should have by then. The systems does have a VGA output but nothing is connected. USB keyboard/mouse is not connected either. However, you just gave me the idea to enable CONFIG_IA64_EARLY_PRINTK. Trying that now. thanks, grant > > Jesse
