Hi,
Trying to get vga console and a serial console to both work. I can get either one to fully work but not both. When using serial, I do still get a login prompt on the vga, But not all the boot up output. Seems like half to the vga and the rest to the serial port
I added lines to /etc/inittab # console port T0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -L ttyS0 115200
Are you sure your serial console supports 115200???
And added to /etc/lilo.conf append="console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8"
try 9600 or not even specifying that. 115200?? You are not using a V92 modem -_-
All serial console cards/servers I have seen only do 9600.
I tried to add to "serial=0,115200n8" lilo.conf, but this gives error unsoported baud rate, commenting the line out seems to work.
Any ideas on how to get both VGA and serial console to fully work? Maybe, I can have one but not the other?
IRCC, there was something like that in the kernel docs but I don't know if that is still true.
