keeping serial console open on Sun Blade 100 even with keyboard & mouse attached

----
I'm configuring a Sun Blade 100 to be a minor server. Took me a while to 
discover that the serial console is deactivated if the system is booted 
with a keyboard and mouse attached. It then re-routes all console output 
to the vga port.
Does anyone know if there is a way to keep the serial console port even 
when the Sun Blade is booted with the keyboard and mouse attached? 
Setting a boot prom variable or something? Seems like it could at least 
tee the output or something. That way, I would have the serial console 
as an emergency fallback for remote management & stuff.
TIA
