Using serial terminal?

(1/1)

bmarkus:
Can we use a serial console with piCore instead of keyboard-mouse-display? Is it available by default or a boot code needed?

Lee:
Hmmm... I think I have an ADM-3A floating around somewhere from my Ampro Littleboard days.  :)  Is there a convenient way to interface the pi to legacy serial i/o hardware?

Easiest way is an USB/RS-232 konverter cable or adapter, like this:
