Huh, it's supposed to just work, following the kernel settings. pasting from Google cache, as Poetterings blog is down - To make use of a serial console, just use console=ttyS0 on the kernel command line, and systemd will automatically start a getty on it for you." By default systemd will instantiate one serial-getty@.service on the main kernel[4] console, if it is not a virtual terminal This logic is implemented in a generator called systemd-getty-generator that is run early at boot and pulls in the necessary services depending on the execution environment. sometimes there's the need to manually configure a serial getty, for example, if more than one serial login prompt is needed or the kernel console should be redirected to a different terminal than the login prompt. To facilitate this it is sufficient to instantiate serial-getty@.service once for each serial port you want it to run on[7]: # systemctl enable serial-getty@ttyS2.service # systemctl start serial-getty@ttyS2.service Sometimes, there's the need to configure the login prompt in even more detail. For example, if the default baud rate configured by the kernel is not correct or other agetty parameters need to be changed. In such a case simply copy the default unit template to /etc/systemd/system and edit it there: # cp /usr/lib/systemd/system/serial-getty@.service /etc/systemd/system/serial-getty@ttyS2.service # vi /etc/systemd/system/serial-getty@ttyS2.service .... now make your changes to the agetty command line ... # ln -s /etc/systemd/system/serial-getty@ttyS2.service /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/ # systemctl daemon-reload # systemctl start serial-getty@ttyS2.service This creates a unit file that is specific to serial port ttyS2, so that you can make specific changes to this port and this port only. [7] Note that this systemctl enable syntax only works with systemd 188 and newer (i.e. F18). On older versions use ln -s /usr/lib/systemd/system/serial-getty@.service /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/serial-getty@ttyS2.service ; systemctl daemon-reload instead. _______________________________________________ Cerowrt-devel mailing list Cerowrt-devel@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel
