Pass TERM=vt100 or TERM=vt102 at boot time. Current init process does not enforce TERM settings anymore ;(( I don't know wether I will enable it again or just let the user pass TERM=xxx at boot time. Maybe a serial target for silo could also be helpful for floppy boot. On this topic, do you know about a way of identifying the type of console connected to the serial line ? Is there an escape sequence that returns vt100 or the like ? -- Eric Delaunay | S'il n'y a pas de solution, c'est qu'il n'y [EMAIL PROTECTED] | a pas de problème. Devise Shadok.
