If you have a usb serial adapter im afraid i can not help you with that.

Setting that up is a PC issue and without been there hard to help with.

Try find a old computer with a serial port, maybe a mate has one.

No mate after the image install the rest can be downloaded from the images addon server or via FTP you will not need the null cable again.

Make sure your using the correct com port.

If your using a usb-serial adapter check your settings in device manager.

If your using a null modem cable mate you dont have to worry about IP addresses just the comp port number.

Your using a null modem cable so you don't press the update tab you press the serial tab.
