We added console=ttyS0 to the cloud image kernel command line, so that console output is logged in OpenStack -- see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886338, and also a request on this list. But, that doesn't exist in Amazon EC2, which ... 1. ... had the effect of making cloud-init totally fail to run (see earlier threads), and .... 2. results in systemd generating a getty service for ttyS0, which then fails repeatedly. Now, it happens that in EC2, we are using the menu.lst file to boot, and in OpenStack, it's the extlinux.conf. We _could_ kludge this by putting console=ttyS0 in extlinux.conf and console=hvc0 in menu.list. But that seems pretty ugly. Also, in EC2, we probably want to actually disable all agettys. But in OpenStack, you can actually get to the console (a cool feature!) and having a getty might be useful..... except, I realize as I'm typing, that there's really no way to log in there without further configuration. Would it be so awful to suppress the agettys completely by default? -- Matthew Miller ☁☁☁ Fedora Cloud Architect ☁☁☁ <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud
