Here's my situation. I just want to default this vm. I was able to get in the system through a serial connection but not able to re-initialize the unit. also I've got the ip address too, but have had no luck what so ever getting in. Could someone please tell me how to set my ip properties on my pc so that i can get in this puppy. This is hooking up with a cross over cable. Or if there is a way through the serial connection that will work. I've tried everything i could possible think of. I can ping the ip address but just can't get to the login screen.. please help... thanks
