on the older V240's you have to eyeball the box and see the serial number sticker.

on most of the newer boxes (last 12-18 months) it is in the NVRAM and can be seen using sneep.
sneep can be installed from a solaris package.

if you have an older box, you can use sneep to put the serial number into NVRAM.

NAME
C-BIOS - provides open source BIOS ROM files for MSX computers DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the C-BIOS rom files. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. C-BIOS is an open source BIOS for MSX computers. C-BIOS can be shipped with MSX emulators so they are usable out-of-the-box. Details about the BIOS calls available in the ROM files can be found at http://map.tni.nl/ but keep in mind the C-BIOS is work in progress and does not support all BIOS calls yet. C-BIOS comes in three versions currently. C-BIOS_MSX1 is compatible with MSX1 machines, C-BIOS_MSX2 is compatible with MSX2 machines and C- BIOS_MSX2+ is compatible with MSX2+ machines. Each version comes in three localisation variants, an international, Japanse (JP) and Brazilian (BR) one. SEE ALSO
