--- Begin Message ---Package: debian-installer Version: 20070308etch1 Severity: important Our cluster nodes PXE boot with the following parameters: append initrd=debian/etch/DI/amd64/initrd.gz ramdisk_size=18000 root=/dev/rd/0 devfs=mount,dall rw console=ttyS0,57600n8 auto url=http://198.202.70.23/DI/preseed-etch-node DEBIAN_FRONTEND=text locale=en_US priority=critical interface=auto netcfg/dhcp_timeout=60 The serial console works for the initial install but the generated /boot/grub/menu.lst won't have a console line. Adding the older sarge-style d-i boot parameters doesn't help, either: debian-installer/console/type=serial debian-installer/console/serial/speed=57600 I've kludged around this in our preseed/late-command script: chroot /target sed -i 's/kopt=.*$/& console=ttyS0,57600n8/g' /boot/grub/menu.lst Although the effects are similar this doesn't appear to be related to #416310 since we're using the full serial console parameter. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-5-amd64 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)
