I don't have a serial cable.

By the way, I'm also looking for a TTL-serial converter (with
the good connectors or adapters) in France or Europe (French or
English, and Euros would be better), if you happen to know a
trustworthy (and not too expensive) retailer...


RS232C ports are getting rare on PCs :(

For serial consoles I use modified USB download cables intended for oldish mobile phones. (Old mobile phones need USB to RS232-like serial conversion but with outputs at TTL levels. Unfortunately recent ones are USB directly so the download cables are just straight wires.) For my LaCie Ethernet Disk Mini V2 NAS, I use a DKU-5 cable intended for old Nokia mobiles as I described here: http://forum.nas-central.org/viewtopic.php?f=146&t=71.
I bought mine off eBay for about $4.

HTH.

Cheers,
Chris
