Configuring Linux for Serial Console During Boot

The following steps are specific to the Linux GRand Unified Bootloader (GRUB). Similar changes are required if a

different boot loader is used.

NOTE: When you configure the client VT100 emulation window, set the window or application that is displaying the

redirected Virtual Console to 25 rows x 80 columns to make sure the correct text displays. Else, some text screens

may be garbled.

Edit the /etc/grub.conf file as follows:

1. Locate the General Setting sections in the file and add the following:

serial --unit=1 --speed=57600 terminal --timeout=10 serial

2. Append two options to the kernel line:

kernel ............. console=ttyS1,115200n8r console=tty1
