I've discovered if we remove the terminal --timeout=2 console serial line in grub.conf, all *grub* messages will go to both ttyS0 and tty0. But still don't have ideas for how to get the messages after the "Welcome to RedHat Linux..." line to show up. /dky On Mon, 11 Jul 2005, Keegan, Gordon wrote:
I've had the same issue under Lilo as well as grub and haven't found a solution for either one. Theoretically, specifying tty0 and ttyS0 should setup both devices to receive console output, but it doesn't seem to work that way. Here's hoping that someone else has had better luck.

Does anyone know how I can have all the messages during boot time, after the "Welcome to RedHat Linux ..." line output to *both* the monitor and ttyS0? Right now, with the grub.conf changes below, seem to restrict the output of messages after the welcome line to either the monitor or ttyS0 ... I'd like the output to go to both places. I've made the changes in grub.conf, specifically: -- /etc/grub.conf -- #boot=/dev/sda default=3 timeout=10 serial --unit=0 --speed=9600 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1 terminal --timeout=2 console serial #splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz title Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp ro root=/dev/vg00/root console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600n8 ------------------- I recall there was another line, somewhere in /etc/sysconfig that i needed to change? Suggestions? Very much appreciated, /dky
