System console bootstring
You can select the system console at boot
time using the kernel.systty bootstring:
kernel.systty=cn-
selects the main console (the default)
kernel.systty=sio-
selects COM1 (/dev/tty1a) operating at
9600bps with no parity.
See the
bootstring(HW)
manual page for further details. You can also set these bootstrings as
arguments to a defined bootstring in
/etc/default/boot such as DEFBOOTSTR
(see the
boot(F)
manual page.)
