hello:
I have recently tried adding serial console support to my Bering 1.0 LEAF box. This is a dual floopy setup, and loads in a number of packages so I aslo have my package list in a "lrpkg.cfg" file, not in the "syslinux.cfg" file.
Anyway, I followed the instructions in the Bering user's manual for serial line support, specifically I added the "serial 0 19200" and "append=.." lines to syslinux.cfg
Now, when i boot the system and try to use LRCFG and go to packages (choice 3), the package list only list one thing - "initrd". the other packages all appear to load, and they firewall seems to be ok in all other respects.
How do you switch from floppy1 to floppy2 without a console?
when i look at "/var/lib/lrpkg/packages" i do not see a list of packages anymore. there is only one line "Installed - root /dev/fd0 etc /dev/fd0 ....." (sorry about this quote, it may not be exact, but what it looks like is the output you see when the OS starts to load the packages during the boot up process).
What do you see in '/var/lib/packages/backdisk'?
if i replace the syslinux.cfg file with the original one, the lrcfg, and package list files return to normal, and all the packages are listed.
Please provide us with the details of syslinux.cfg and lrpkg.cfg (and differences of course :-) )
