Subject: serial console in single mode does not function
Date: Thu, 28 Feb 2002 19:36:04 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3C7E6A84.DED890F6@lmt.lv> (raw)
When system with serial console is started in single mode it boots
shell. But any button pressed in terminal does not go to console.
Looks like hanged system. Nothing changed but kernel (2.4.14) only
and serial console works as expected: any pressed chars are displayed
in console.
Kernels 2.4.17 and 2.4.18 was checked and do not function.
Systems are Alpha Avanti and Alpha Miata (some info provided below).
