Ok, you stated the following:
"So I enabled the 1 serial port on the mother board - and tried that,
but I am guessing that I need to specify somewhere the speed to
communicate thru the port."
If you the mythbox doesn't have a serial port then enabling the on
board without a connection to it is useless. My point, if you have
not connected the serial null modem cable to the motherboard serial
port then telling the serial port to communicate at a given rate is
useless.
