Thanks Gerald, > Try append console=ttyS0,38400,n8 > For using serial port 0, and 38400 baud I can only append it to the iso (as I don't have a keyboard attached). How should it be appended to the iso ? I know how to open the iso and change it; to be more accurate, I should add these parameters to the isolinux.cfg. But then, how to create the new iso with the new isolinux.cfg ? Is it but mkisofs ? and it case it is, with which parameters exactly ?
