You'll have trouble when it does come up -- we don't have proper console
support yet.

I think Sun have their own strange pinout whereas HP use a standard
null-modem cable.

9600 8N1, no hardware or software flow control is the right setting to
get firmware to talk to you.
By the way, we don't have a K220 in the hwdb yet; the closest we have is
a K210. Please go to http://hwdb.parisc-linux.org/add.php3?type=machine
and follow the instructions.
We hope to have support for the console on the K-class later this year...
