You do not need to alter the output and input device. Go with the
default values.
The Sun machines automaticly redirects to ttya if a keyboard is NOT
connected,
this is done during boot of the machine. In other words, boot without
the
keyboard attached.

Make sure your terminalprogram is setup as 9600bps 8 bits, no parity, 1
stopbit.
Also make sure you have a nullmodem cable. A straight serial cable will
not do.
The cable is also sometimes called tipcable.
