Re: twinax console fried

[John McKee <jmmckee@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm guessing I am wrong.  What about changing console to a LAN console?  My
"adventure" this last week has left me curious.  System value QCONSOLE on
the system I work with was set to DSP04.  All I (eventually) had to do was
create a new SST device - since, at the time, I was unclear on how to reset
both the device and the front panel.  Later, I tried to delete QCONSOLE and
got a message saying could not be done.  So, going out on a limb, I am
wondering if there is a reserved device defined in SST/DST named QCONSOLE.

Really on a limb, compared to many other people.
