I have a server set up with Fedora 18, works ok.
I decided to make the root partition encrypted, set that up, works ok.
The machine is remote so I use a serial console to connect, works ok.
Here's the rub, while booting there is a pause to request the passphrase
to unlock the encrypted fs.
If I have grub configured to display boot messages on tty0 and ttyS0 the
passphrase can only be entered at tty0.
If I configure grub to only display boot messages on ttyS0 then the
passphrase can be entered on ttyS0.
How can I display boot messages on tty0 and ttyS0 and enter the passphrase
on the terminal that I am working on.
This is my /etc/default/grub.
GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
