Package: memtest86+
Version: 4.20-1.1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
When recompiled with SERIAL_CONSOLE_DEFAULT=1 and other settings in
config.h the serial console works fine. However setting the
parameters from the boot prompt with lilo (or pxelinux) does not.
In particular these settings do not work (lilo version):
append="console=ttyS1,115200n8"
and similarly
console=ttyS1
console=ttyS0
etc.
From a brief poke at the code I suspect that the commandline is not
successfully being passed from the bootloader to memtest.
