I'd be interested in the output of my script on your machines and whether it helped you find the right physical port.
Well it maybe helpfull for someone that has a bunch of physical ports,

my boards only have two physical ports and I already know which one is
the
debug port/first port. But I could run it for you if you want me to...
That would be nice. Although the script was mainly written to find the two debug ports on my machine with 14 ports, I hope it is useful for smaller machines.
By the way, do you have a debug cable?
No, that is a sore subject with me... Remember I wanted to build one, and I got shot down for that...
Yes, I remember that discussion. The main point was that parts+shipping would be almost the current net20dc price+shipping. My apologies if you felt shot down, that surely was not intentional.
I still can't justify the price, when a serial cable works just as good.
Same here. I still hope we can somehow abuse the Geode CS5536 chip to act as a debug device. That would probably be cheaper than building a NET20DC from scratch, especially because Geode based boards can be had rather cheap on ebay.
