Hello Laurent, you are right, it seems to be a kernel issue (there is a kernel patch which causes it, I've currently reversed it). from what I can remember, my /dev/console is 644. regarding the real dev, I've suspected that is the issue but I don't have a /dev mount entry in my fstab so I assume it is the same. I think I use static /dev. what kernel options should I check? I did tried with console=foobar, it didn't worked.
