Thank for your insight Roberto. I guess CNTRL-C will be a issue for me. I need to have that working.
And unfortunately, I am trying a montavista 4.0.1 (linux 2.6.10) distribution with an busybox 1.6.0. The distribution gives me a precompiled busybox without any source code But they provide me an option of selecting the utilities that I need from busybox through a GUI. But I don't see setconsole as a part of the utilities nor does the nor does the linux has it # setconsole -sh: setconsole: not found # which setconsole # Although the other two commands that you suggested did work. Apart from that, I did try out one other thing, I tried to include the ttyss1 into /etc/inittab # cat /etc/inittab # Default entries for busybox init. ::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/reboot ::shutdown:/bin/umount -a -r ::shutdown:/sbin/swapoff -a ::restart:/sbin/init ::askfirst:-/bin/sh ::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS # Start watcher if it dies. ::respawn:/usr/local/bin/watcher ttyss1:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty /dev/ttyS1 9600 vt100 Would this help? But, when I check for my current console, I see this # tty /dev/console Thanks, Sreen -----Original Message----- From: Roberto A.
