consoles

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am trying to setup a system that can use either the regular 
keyboard/monitor for console or the serial port.  The system needs to 
boot unattended and it needs to make the right choice as to serial or 
normal console.

I can get the console to be one of the other with various
console=xxxx lines.  However there doesn't seem to be anything like 
autodetection.  i.e. if the keyboard is plugged in use that, else use 
the serial port.

Also is it possible for /dev/console (not just kernel messages) to go to 
both at once?  That includes input as well.
