Ctrl-C works just fine on everything now, thanks to Cal Erickson. The trick is to make /dev/console a symbolic link to ur serial port /dev/ttyS0 or S1.

There is a problem with the way the serial consoles are started on CDK 1.0 and 1.2, it was left up to the serial driver to turn on or off the control-c activation. Under HHL 2.0, this problem has been resolved by using getty and login to start a serial connection. login has a patch that ensures that the control-c stuff is enabled. I would highly recommend that you move forward to HHL 2.0 if you can, it has a lot of these minor annoyances fixed. --Mark Hatle MontaVista Software, Inc. ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
