Package: finish-install Version: 2.10 Severity: wishlist #274649 modified finish-install to have the finished system start a getty on the serial port used for installation and update /etc/securetty so root can log into it (thank you!).
At the same time, it disables the gettys on the local console (tty[1-6]). We often install via serial console with ipmitool(1), but also use the local console from time to time. It would be nice if finish-install simply kept these gettys around, or offered an option to do so (perhaps a debconf question that we could preseed?). -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
