Hi,

If you do a standard voyage.update installation and selected ALIX 
profile, the serial port (dev/ttyS0) is assigned to the console terminal 
as defined in /etc/inittab.  ALIX has a DB9 connector and has another 
serial port via connector, you should makes use of the extra connector 
instead of the DB9 which serve the console terminal.

Punky
