Are you on a sparc box? Normally you don't need to use hyperterminal etc on an intel based server. Red Hat hasn't supported a sparc based platform in almost 10 years I think, though my time may be off a little.

What box are you connecting to?

also, the pci=routeirq is a kernel option you can use at boot, but I am not sure that is really going to help at this juncture.
