Mr. Nickelsen:

I have just discovered NetBSD and and read that version 1.2 does not
support ADB on the classic II. The documentation advises that a "serial
terminal" can be used. I know that NetBSD-current claims to support ADB
on the Classic II, but I am wary of this self-proclaimed bug-ridden
version. As I write this, I am FTPing the software itself and I will see
what happens when I run it...

If you know how to connect a serial terminal (i have a 512ke that could
be used), i would appreciate the advice.

Regards,

Sam Hathaway
