[f16-branch 5/5] Add "console=XXX" to yaboot.conf if using virtpconsole (#758530)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Following tradition from RHEL6 and earlier, if we're on a POWER system
with a virtpconsole (e.g. hvc0), add "console=hvc0" to the boot args in
yaboot.conf.

Note that this is only necessary because of some shortcomings of F16
plymouth - see bug #744415 for background.
