Show it from /proc/cmdline. If removing the postbootscripts will ignore this issue, you need to look into the postbootscripts to see what happens in it. # cat /proc/cmdline ro root=LABEL=/ console=ttyS0,19200n8r rhgb quiet Thanks Best Regards ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Wang Xiaopeng (王晓朋) IBM China System Technology Laboratory Tel: 86-10-82453455 Email: [email protected] Address: 28,ZhongGuanCun Software Park,No.8 Dong Bei Wang West Road, Haidian District Beijing P.R.China 100193 Gilad Berman ---2011-07-27 23:10:04---Hello all, We're facing a strange issue with serial console and inittab - From: Gilad Berman <[email protected]> To: xCAT Users Mailing list <[email protected]> Date: 2011-07-27 23:10 Subject: [xcat-user] serial console not working - inittab overwritten Hello all, We're facing a strange issue with serial console and inittab - a clean statefull installation works fine and we can rcons to the nodes after. Running our postscripts manually after installation one by one works OK and we can rcons to the nodes after that with no issues. However, when we run a full installation, after running our postbootscripts we loose the SOL (starting crond [ OK ] is the last thing we see). Looking into inittab - we're missing the console line - co:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -h ttyS0 115200 (taken from other machine i have in my lab since i can't copy-paste from the actual machine) Adding this line manually solves the problem. Somewhere in the installation process the inittab get rewritten and we loose the SOL (only for the OS, hw works ok), we just wonder what could cause that? Any ideas? p.s installation works fine, including post scripts, looks like the only think broken is the console line in inittab. thx in advance.
