How about just plain "console=8250,io,..."? > You may need to remove early_serial_console_init in your ia64 > setup_arch, and some dummy function for set_fixmap_nocache, and > __fix_to_virt in your asm-ia64/fixmap.h I don't want to add asm-ia64/fixmap.h with dummy definitions just for this. Can we add this: asm-ia64/io.h: #define bt_ioremap ioremap asm-x86_64/io.h: #define bt_ioremap early_ioremap and use bt_ioremap instead? > new command line will be > > earlycon=early8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8 > earlycon=early8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8 > or > console=early8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8 > console=early8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8 If you can make "console=early8250" work, we don't need "earlycon=early8250", do we?
