[uml-devel] can't set console on 2.6.0

[uml-devel] can't set console on 2.6.0

[Jeff Chua]

On 2.6.0 uml, is there's a way to use the same screen to boot up uml
without opening new xterm windows?  On 2.4.x, I can make it work with the
following line ...

	linux ro con0=null,fd:2 con1=fd:0,fd:1 ubda=/tmp/disk1

Starting the above on an xterm will boot up uml linux on the same screen,
and display the login prompt on the same window.



Thanks,
Jeff

I'm in the middle of updating 2.6 so it catches up with 2.4, so I suppose
you could try that when it's ready.  However, I don't think there have been
any changes in this area.  This should behave the same with 2.4 and 2.6.
