Summary: Issue with serial console redirection being lost over IPMI when booting to dos Project: GNU GRUB Submitted by: evildesign Submitted on: Thu 10 Aug 2017 12:56:55 AM UTC Category: Booting Severity: Major Priority: 5 - Normal Item Group: None Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Name: Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Release: Release: 2.02 Reproducibility: Every Time Planned Release: None _______________________________________________________ Details: I have a system that uses com3 "ttyS2" (0x3E8, irq 5) for console redirection, and when trying to boot DOS from (Hard drive or image) over IPMI, nothing is being to return to the IPMI and is being sent to console. Booting the Hard drive or image (over pxe) works fine over IPMI. Grub display fine over IPMI, but when booting Dos or having grub exit so the next hard drive boot, console redirection is lost. Here is where it starts to get strange. These are the settings I thought should work, but don't. I have tried setting terminal_(input/output) to the following settings ("serial console", "serial_com2 serial console"), but neither worked. This has also brought up another bug where grub-mkconfig doesn't accept serial_comX as a valid setting in $GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT. I was able to actually get console direction to work correctly, by adding serial_comX ( Where X is 3 or higher ) into terminal_(input/output). This is currently still an issue with the latest copy of code in the git repo. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51712> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list Bug-grub@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
