[geeks] Sun sparc station 5, reboot with serial console

Hi there

I connected a SparcStation 5 over a serial wire to a PC.
Then I can use a programm like minicom on the PC to connect
to the SparcStation.  So far, this works fine.

But there's a problem: when the PC gets rebooted, my
SS5 gets down to the 'ok ' Prompt.

Is there a configuration tweak, which I can do in OpenBoot,
so that my SS5 won't get down when the PC does reboot?  Or
is there any other solution?

Cheers
   Thomas
