Don't touch sysvinit. Instead, do the following in your livecd-stage2.spec file... livecd/bootargs: console=3DttyS0,115200 That's it. When the CD is built, it'll have the console appended to both the "normal" and "nofb" kernels. Either kernel will work perfectly fine for serial console, so you're done. >=20 > -Scott >=20 > Nelson Batalha wrote: > > I believe you can overwrite it in the overlay or you can do "equery > > belongs /etc/inittab" in your own system to discover it belongs to > > sys-apps/sysvinit, so you can change that too. > > > > Joshua Hoblitt escreveu: > > =20 > >> Hi Folks, > >> > >> I'm attempting to generate an amd64 livecd that starts up a tty on a > >> serial port.
