I'm trying to get console messages from both a typical serial port and via a 
USB 
serial device using the io_ti driver.  You can see my kernel command line in 
the 
messages below.  Using kernel version 2.6.19-1.2895 which is basically a Fedora 
Core 6 kernel with my kernel config.  Compiled in:
#
# USB Serial Converter support
#
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL=y
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_EDGEPORT_TI=y


Something strange is happening on the USB serial console.  It starts getting 
messages, stops, and then starts picking them up again towards the end.  You 
can 
see where it gets cut off while printing the line "Enabling fast FPU save and 
restore... done."  Oh, and ttyUSB0 doesn't end up functioning as a console 
whatsoever once init starts up..


Is this a known issue with previous kernels?  Or Fedora kernels?  Is there a 
patch I need to use?  Or any other clues as to why this may be happening?

Thanks for any help...Paul...
