HTH, Filipe
Thank you, Filipe. It doesn't work though. The server runs the XEN kernel, and I think there's something I need to enable in XEN for it to work, as XEN uses the console's of the domU's in the same way as a serial console. So, I think I need to redirect it, somehow, but don't know how yet.
Use "minicom -s" to configure Minicom especially the serial port tty~~~~
