It appears that isolinux loads and overwrites the 1st lines<br>
hence the 'ready.g' in the middle of the ............... string.<br>
<br>
then the screen blanks..<br>
<br>
I suspect that the isolinux config wants a different serial/console<br>
speed setup than the box is currently set for.<br>
<br>
I mounted the iso in a -o loop to look for console=<setting>\<br>
found only :<br>
<br>
f6.txt:Use first serial port at 9600 baud ? console=ttyS0,9600n807<br>
<br>
I dont quite get it..<br>
<br>
how can I get my serial/console setting into isolinux,<br>
OR what settings does it use, so I can setup my box and cfg to agree with it ?<br>
<br>
