Hi guys!

I have a problem using serial port in FreeBSD-2.0.

I want to use "kermit" as console device of my evaluation board(MIPS
bare machine) in FreeBSD, but kermit hangs when I set line to /dev/tty00.
(tty00 is mapped to com1 and MIPS board is directly connected to PC with 
null modem.)
When I used MS-DOS, "ms-kermit" acted well as the console of the board.

What's the problem and How do I correct it?
Thanks in advance.
