Hi

Connect to the console port through the hyper terminal. And you can install.

Hi,

On a workstation it is not possible if you have not console port if you have console port you can. But you can connect any normal monitor to your workstation if it has a 15 Pin D-type female VGA port & then by changing resolution setting you can use that monitor.

On a B1000 server you have serial 1 and 2 connect your old terminal to serial 1 and install the workstation as you would a server.
To be able to use you grafical interfase ether bye a grafical card for B1000 or install remote consoles like VNC.

Hi,

You can use normal serial console cable (Not parallel) to connect this to a serial port of a PC/Laptop. There will not be a prompt untill machine boots so power recycle the machine and then wait for something to come on terminal. Also check that terminal is a working one.

If you have a old serial console connect that to serial 1.
Else use you laptop...

When you reboot, disconnect the keyboard, then the workstation will default to the serial port. You can reconnect the keyboard when you have some output on your dumb terminal.
