Summary: Concurrent console and serial access Project: GNU GRUB Submitted by: gvillemure Submitted on: Sat 16 Jan 2010 04:23:19 AM GMT Category: Terminal Severity: Major Priority: 5 - Normal Item Group: Feature Request Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Name: Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Release: Release: 1.97 Reproducibility: Every Time Planned Release: None _______________________________________________________ Details: Historically this option has always worked: terminal --dumb --timeout=10 console serial But with the new version of GRUB it not longer seems to work. I tried doing something like this to no avail: terminal_input serial terminal_output serial if sleep -i -v 10 terminal_input console terminal_output console fi In short the inability to accommodate console and serial port access in the same config is a show stopper for me. One cannot tell in advance that console will NEVER be needed nor can one say that Serial will never be used. Having the option to have both running is a required feature in my book.
