-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello everybody,
I bought a few HP Z600 systems to make a test cluster and I normally use GRUB2 but this system does not have a serial console by default and require expensive (+20 euro PA716A, 283984-001, 264534-001 serial port adapters) that are about the same price as a new PCI, PCIE or USB serial adapter. However when I boot the system GRUB is not showing up, probably because it is not loading the driver. I prefer not to use a USB device. GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rootfstype=ext4 console=ttyS0,115200 rootdelay=20" GRUB_TERMINAL=serial GRUB_SERIAL_COMMAND="serial --speed=115200 --unit=0 --word=8 - --parity=no --stop=1" For systemd this is enough. else with inittab: # change the single-user mode line ~~:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin /dev/console 1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty -f /etc/issue.linuxlogo.ascii 38400 tty1 # add the following line T0:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -f /etc/issue.linuxlogo.ascii -L ttyS0 115200 vt100 So my question is, can I use an PCI or PCI-E serial adapter (specific drivers?) to make sure the GRUB serial output is shown. Kind regards, Jelle de Jong -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iJwEAQECAAYFAlUlJIYACgkQ1WclBW9j5Hl82wP/T+NRkDUeijnGckX6iIfuYYkI uwLhJvIAEgsecfe3ocrcpLxiPonNeaM3tHYrXn3DDsSGUQJdvoonxSFXZYuDyEpD CNCJ/j9D0R1m0kXXsK6PQGxx3Fg1MyxbVrNOSyvatu8htkBSsQKIZzpwpA5lzOsq xPMmMM7Uc1aDm5vBbU0= =Yzr6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Help-grub mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-grub
