Hi,
I am trying to remove the boot messages printed during the boot phase.
Why? Seriously. To not confuse your grandmother?
as a workaround:
I added in
/etc/boot.conf
set tty com0
which brought the desired output, that when the server boots, it does
not print any information to the console.
Yes it does.
now i would like to print some output to the console :)
cat /dev/console.
Note however that your console is the com port.
so my question is:
1- is there another way to stop the system printing messages to the console
2- is it possible to revert the output back to console from com0
at the end on the boot message I would like to print that the system is ready.
I suspect what you really mean is that you want to output stuff to the
_screen_. Try writing it to /dev/ttyC0, as in
# echo -- System is ready --\r /dev/ttyC0
I bet it will do what you want.
