Headless (Serial Console) Installation?

Is it possible?  I'm attempting to install on a device which has no video card.  I can see the options over serial once it boots - 

"boot:" prompt and instructions about Enter, F1 and F3.  But after that nothing shows on the serial console.

Is it possible to perform the install this way?

  • Hello,
    Similar challenge here. Second hand ASG320 with no video connection. I've already purchased a cable that I thought would work ($25!), but the connector was far to large for the pin grouping on the motherboard.

    My question: is it possible to do a headless installation on an ASG 320 ver1? Would anyone be willing to share a prepared automated ISO I could use? Coffee is on me, but I'm really struggling here [:(]

    Thanks,
    Tim
