You may have to put the tty binary on the cd if it's not already on the installer. Finally, you could analyse it and mimic it's behavior (if it's just looking up something in /proc). andre On 12/6/06, John Summerfield <debian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

I ought to be able to make use of that -- thanks. I'm mildly confused... What you will see in the commandline is those console arguments. It's how the kernel knows what to use. -- Cheers John -- spambait 1aaaaaaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Z1aaaaaaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Tourist pics http://portgeographe.environmentaldisasters.cds.merseine.nu/ Please do not reply off-list _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
