->If you try to read /dev/tcx0 on a SunOS 4.1.4 Sparc 20 (it didn't
->work on a 10; didn't have access to a Sparc 5, so I couldn't check
->that), you will cause a system panic. How do you read it, you ask?
->Simply "cat /dev/tcx0" or "ls /dev/tcx0/*". You don't need special
it does crash a Sparc 5, it's rebooting right now ;-)
