[SunHELP] booting a Enterprise 3500

I just got a new/used Enterprise 3500.  This would be the first Sun box 
that I've played with that did not have a video card in it.  I've hooked a 
laptop to serial port A on the box and have HyperTerminal running.  I have 
HyperTermainal set to auto detect the terminal type and have it at 
9600-8-N-1 for communications settings.

I've fired up the machine but do not see anything on the laptop.

On the front, there are 3 LEDs.  The left is green, the middle is slowly 
blinking yellow, the right is off.

Would this indicate that I've got some sort of hardware failure?
