I need to boot DOS via serial port (to debug the graphics). It works with mode "COM1: 96,n,8,1" and "ctty com1", but only if hardware handshaking (RTS/CTS & DTR/DTS) are connected. Unfortunately, on the system I need to debug these signals are not available. So the question is, does anyone know of a way around this - a patched MODE command version, for example?
