Advanced menu is set to VT100.
• /etc/boot/menu.lst—Determines the speed after the kernel is loaded.
• /etc/inittab—Determines the speed after the OS is loaded. Enter the following:
$ cat /etc/inittab | grep S0

Note The CDE100 may have the following serial console settings: 9600 baud rate, no parity, 8 data bits, and
