I've no idea who generates that event. But it works for me simply by booting the kernel with "console=ttyS0". Gives you (as usual) all boot messages on the serial line, and additionally it somehow triggers the mentioned event so you'll have a getty for login too. Works with the xen console (aka console=hvc0) too, probably anything != virtual terminal. For just an additional getty on the serial line, without also moving the console it it, I've simply copyed tty1 to ttyS0 and adapted it. Keep in mind though that booting with console=ttyS0 then is a real bad idea then. In that case both serial and ttyS0 start a getty on your serial line, they fight for your keystrokes then, making it almost impossible to login because you never know which of the two actually gets what you type ... cheers, Gerd -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
