Subject: [PATCH] autodetect serial console on efika
Date: Sat, 31 Mar 2007 17:08:23 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070331150823.GA25421@aepfle.de> (raw)
Efika boards have to be booted with console=ttyPSC0 unless there is a
graphics card plugged in. Detect if the firmware stdout is the serial
connector.
