I have returned to the original uart.c. Although it still kills my serial port it has nothing to do with the unable to open initial console. Will the original uart.c I still get logging in /var/log/messages and I can see it is still doing the same thing. Yes, uart.c is probably something that I will still have to look at, but it is not the root cause of my original problem. Any more suggestions would be appreciated since I feel I've hit the brick wall quite severely now. Besides file permissions (which Im conviced are fine now) what else could cause the kernel to not be able to open a console? Regards Flavio ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
