Aquired a pile of sgi systems / Serial console setttings

[mrbill0]

A local computer company shut down, found all kinds of sgi equipment being thrown out. Lots of o2 and indigo systems. The o2's seem outright smashed, might still work. The indigo systems look alright, scratched but complete. I also got a rackmount origin 300 with some router bricks and a onyx4 box with 2 video cards in it. Oh, and there was also a stripped out onyx 1, as well as a origin deskside in rough shape.

I was curious, the rackmount origin 300 powers up, im trying to get the serial console settings right. Ive tried all the different baud rates on my terminal, all i get is gibberish.

Edit: With apologies, I no longer wish to have involvement with SGUG or SGI communities in general,
and have also chosen to remove all of my content. Many things have changed since I co-founded, named, and ultimately
then left SGUG. There are many good people around, to whom I apologize for frustrating by removing these things, and
also many petty people that over the years whittled down both the enjoyment as well as sense of obligation I used to
feel to anyone else regarding what was ultimately just a hobby. Unfortunately one of the latter now writes the rules
and so it is time for me to take my things and go.

This message will replace all of my previous forum posts because deleting threads that I started would have removed
other peoples' posts.
