A MAJOR difference is the serial ports. The DG/1 uses 8251 serail chips instead of the 8250 (I guess no cmos 8250's?). At any rate, no standard PC terminal program will work. I would like to get KERMIT up on the DG/1. This requires knowing how the 8251's are connected to the interrupt controller, etc. DG apparently hasn't released the tech manual yet. Help! Does anyone know how to use the DG/1's serial ports in interrupt mode? Has anyone seen the tech manual?
