( Using the standard sio driver on 2.1.7 ) : I'd like to connect a terminal using some DB25/RJ11 connectors, which : are limited to 4 wires, but getty doesn't respond unless CTS/RTS : are connected. I can't find anything in the getty or sio docs, : so any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks everybody, for all the helpful tips. The /etc/rc.serial file was piece of the puzzle I was looking for.
