I'm working on developing serial console access for Oxygen. What I
want to do is have everything on /dev/tty0 replicate onto /dev/ttyS0.
Syslinux does this without blinking; I think the kernel might too.
However, other things (like /linuxrc, /etc/init.d/rc, and
/etc/init.d/rcS) won't do this; either it goes to /dev/ttyS0 or it
goes to /dev/tty0 - how would you tie these TOGETHER?
Inittab is the source that runs rc, rcS, and getty; once getty is
loaded I don't want things in two places....
I also want to tie both the keyboard and serial input together.
Basically, this would allow one to boot a version of LRP, and pick
either the virtual console or the serial console without changing
anything but which keyboard/screen you use - no configuration
changes. Isn't this possible?
Once the system is loaded, I don't want these two tied together like
that; ttyS0 and tty0 should be separate then - two different gettys.
But BEFORE that....
