Hey all,
I'm running Xen pre-3.0 from FC4, rebuilt on a Debian system. (I needed
support for 2.6.12 kernels, which they include, and I haven't been able to
get anywhere else).
If I specify com1=<stuff> as a boot parameter for Xen, I am unable to
access the serial port under Linux; in syslog, I get:
[ 1.796999] WARNING: Failed to register Xen virtual console driver as 'ttyS0'
and if I try to read/write from ttyS0 I get I/O errors. I also get the
above error if I remove com1=<stuff> from the Grub command line, but then
the serial port works fine.
Any ideas? Is this something fixed in a more recent snapshot of 3.0? If
so, anyone got patches to let me use a 2.6.12 kernel with recent 3.0? (I
need 2.6.12 for a recent version of GFS.)
Thanks!
