That's not the problem, this is a known issue. Early in boot the firmware based console attaches. Then the generic VT layer attaches and takes over the console, but because the framebuffer and serial layer hasn't probed devices yet you get a period during the boot during which no console output occurs. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
