Modified /boot/grub/grub.conf contents #grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd0,0) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda6 # initrd /initrd-version.img #boot=/dev/hda default=0 timeout=10 # splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz # This will allow you to only Monitor the OS boot via SOL title Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (2.4.9-e.12smp) SOL Monitor root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.9-e.12smp ro root=/dev/hda6 console=ttyS0,19200 console=tty1 initrd /initrd-2.4.9-e.12smp.img # This will allow you to Interact with the OS boot via SOL title Red Hat Linux (2.4.9-e.12smp) SOL Interactive root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.9-e.12smp ro root=/dev/hda6 console=tty1 console=ttyS0,19200 initrd /initrd-2.4.9-e.12smp.img title Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES-up (2.4.9-e.12) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.9-e.12 ro root=/dev/hda6 initrd /initrd-2.4.9-e.12.img You must restart the Linux operating system after completing these procedures for the changes to take effect and to enable SOL. SUSE SLES 9.0 configuration: Note: This procedure is based on a default installation of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 9.0. The file names, structures, and commands might be different for other versions of SUSE Linux. Configure the general Linux parameters for SOL operation when using the SLES 9.0 operating system. Note: Hardware flow control prevents character loss during communication over a serial connection. You must enable it when using a Linux operating system. 1. Add the following line to the end of the # getty-programs for the normal runlevels section of the /etc/inittab file. This enables hardware flow control and enables users to log in through the SOL console. 7:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -h ttyS0 19200 vt102 2. Add the following line after the tty6 line at the bottom of the /etc/securetty file to enable a user to log in as the root user through the SOL console: ttyS0 Chapter 2.
