Hmmm it's a fresh 6.5.30 install.. I get this in printenv

>> printenv

ConsoleOut=/dev/tty/ioc30
ConsoleIn=/dev/tty/ioc30
cpufreq=400
oldConsolePath=/hw/module/1/slot/io1
ConsolePath=/hw/module/1/slot/io1


Changed it to:
oldConsolePath=/hw/module/1/slot/io4/kona
ConsolePath=/hw/module/1/slot/io4/kona

So, just wondering, but it should not matter if you have a serial connection connected when you boot it up right? Just thinking that when I have had to connect one to get the machine going, perhaps is just defaults to a serial terminal connection.. Tried it without and still had to connect to a terminal to enter in 1) to start up system.

I did setup 6.5.30 from the serial connection, as I didn't have a compatible SOG monitor, but do now..
