Hi, Everybody,
I am updating this thread to ask a more specific question about using a serial port on Arch linux. Basically I am trying to add the following configuration item to my /boot/grub/menu.lst file;
terminal --timeout=5 serial console
This is in accordance with the documentation found here:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wo … al_console
Basically I think that there is a problem with this configuration line, because when it is not present, I see the nice grub ascii menu with the blue border. When it is present, I see a bunch of lines that say something close to "press enter to continue" repeated probably 8-10 times. I am thinking that there is potentially a syntax error in this configuration line, but I would like to see more about what is occurring here. Is there a way to enable logging in grub so that errors are written to a file in /boot/grub? Could anybody potentially speculate what could be causing this problem?
Thank-you,
Dan Sullivan
