Yes, A mini-driver to hook into ppc_md.progress would be one method. Another would be to do what's needed (I don't know off-hand what, sorry) so that you can register the console much earlier, like the early_printk.c stuff (see arch/x86_64/kernel/early_printk.c) does. > BTW.. > What are the device node numbers for ttyCPM[0..5] ? 204 42...45 (devices.txt in linuxppc-2.5, Pantelis ever figure out what to do about the device # conflict with the i.MX driver so we can push that small bit upstream ?) -- Tom Rini http://gate.crashing.org/~trini/
