I'm working on integrating RHEL5 in our environment, and I've stuck on the part where we configure the startup stuff (traditionally, /etc/sysconfig/init) to do simple text-mode output so that our systems on serial consoles print out the entire boot sequence after the kernel boots. Unfortunately, this doesn't appear to be working in RHEL5 anymore. I've modified /etc/sysconfig/init and set BOOTUP=serial (this works on RHEL3/RHEL4), and additionally set GRAPHICAL=no (this is a new option). The kernel is booted with the following command line: kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2747.el5 ro root=LABEL=/1 selinux=0 console=ttyS0,9600 console=tty0,9600 This results in the kernel itself printing to the serial console, but once 'rc' takes over, nothing goes out of ttyS0 until agetty is fired up and the serial login prompt comes up. Any ideas? -- Paul Krizak 5900 E.
