To Ian Darwin <ian () darwinsys ! com>:
Sorry I didn't answer your first message, you sent it directly to Kenneth Gober with cc to me and I hadn't read it.
It is not a problem for me to write commands on the boot prompt after every turning on, that would eliminate the need to modify /etc/boot.conf, right? Althogh I didn't know modifying that file affected the boot prompt itself. Noted.
I do have another computer, the one I planned to use to connect by ssh, but I do not have COM port cards (only pins on the motherboard) nor the cables.
It starts to feel pretty clear that I should try the following:
After correctly typing the decryption password, type:
set tty com0
stty com0 9600
boot -c
disable vga
quit
Would this be enough to boot, to then connect by ssh (without modifying /etc/ttys or having even a COM port card connected to the motherboard's pins)?
