I've missed out on any advice, there's a small retention time on my
server.

I had a problem with running minicom. There was a conflich with the
mouse driver, loaded at boot. Once I disabled the mouse driver, minicom
worked.

As for Loadlin, one kernel gets as far as somewhere around VFS/INIT and
crashes, with lots of dead child processes flying across the screen.
Another kernel reboots the computer as soon as loadlin starts up.

As for the second, I'll try to get some advice from the loadlin's
maker. But any advice from people who have seen the problem would
also be appreciated.
