Hi

With the newer kernels (all 2.4.3?) i noticed following:

Normally i have no initdefault so it ask for the runlevel. It's handy
because i have to compile the nvidia kernel module seperatly wenn i
compilied a new kernel.

With the newer kernel and serial console
(lilo.conf: append="console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600")
everything i typed in at the runlevel prompt is ignored, only trapping in
kdb works.
With older kernels it works. Any ideas?


And yet another question. Is it possible to have the output from the boot
scripts on both serial and vt? i only see it on the serial console.
kernel output is displayed on both.
