I installed gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.10-r1 on E250 and now I'm unable to use serial console. All output while system boots is on console but after running agetty there is nothing.
Code:

This is iron (Linux sparc64 2.6.10-gentoo-r1) 22:35:41


and system doesn't respond on serial console. With 2.6.9 it worked fine...

Hi,

I solved my problem as following:

in /etc/inittab i changed this:
Code:
# SERIAL CONSOLES
#s0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 9600 ttyS0 vt100
#s1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 9600 ttyS1 vt100


to this:
Code:
# SERIAL CONSOLES
s0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 9600 ttyS0 vt100
#s1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 9600 ttyS1 vt100



in my /etc/securetty contains also the following lines:
Code:
tts/0
ttyS0
