It might be easier to do this in %post rather than modify anaconda. This is how we enable output to both serial port and physical console: %post # enable serial console in grub sed -e '12i\ serial --unit=0 --speed=9600 -word=8 --parity=no --stop=1\ terminal --timeout=7 serial console' /boot/grub/grub.conf >/tmp/grub && mv /tmp/grub /boot/grub/grub.conf # enable serial console in linux sed -e '/kernel \/vmlinuz-2/s/$/ console=ttyS0,9600n8 console=tty0 /g' /boot/grub/grub.conf >/tmp/grub && mv /tmp/grub /boot/grub/grub.conf I think that you would want to eliminate "console" and "console=tty0" from the above two lines respectively, to only enable the serial output. -Ed On Tue, 2003-11-18 at 11:24, Jason Montleon wrote: > Where/how does anaconda generate grub.conf?
