No. It's like every other Sun. If you want a serial connection then the
monitor, keyboard and mouse must be disconnected from the machine. Only
when the OBP can not detect a keyboard does the serial console get
activated.
Just use a normal 9 pin serial null modem cable and unplug the keyboard
and mouse
and you should be just fine.
As for unplugging your keyboard mid stream, lets simply say there are
more than one issue at hand there... :'>
