Thanks for the response Ben, I didn't think that the method would have changed racically. On closer inspection it isn't actually fully setting up the grub.conf in that it doesn't add the hiddenmenu option. Its definitely not the numbering of the serial port as once the server has booted I can add: co:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty ttyS1 19200 vt100-nav To inittab, then run init q and the serial console comes back to life. Still a little stumped as to what it could be. ____________________________________________________________________ You might be interested in this...
