[Bug 1898614] Re: ubuntu server installer serial console not preserved after update

2020-11-12 Thread Michael Richardson
Hi. I got KVM+serial console to work this time. (I think that by default, kvm doesn't give the installer enough ram). Going through my proceedure, I allow the installer to upgrade, and it does in fact continue on the serial console. It also continues on the tty0, so perhaps I was confused by

I may have grabbed the wrong log file, I will search the USB key again. I also tried to get the process I followed (F6/ESC/type console=ttyS0) to work on KVM, but I couldn't get the serial port to work at all. I have gotten serial consoles to work with KVM in the past, even without -kernel/-init

This is the time that I tried it. After this, I just didn't accept the upgrade. The machine is installed. I got the console= option on the grub menu by hitting F6, then ESC, and then typing in what I wanted. That used to just involve TAB. I can't easily edit the grub menus on the USB key, since

Public bug reported: I booted ubuntu-core 20 from a USB key to install a server. (It would be great if that was a regular option, and if grub could be more easily tuned to include console ttyS1) Ubuntu nicely discovered that I had booted from serial console, and I opted to stay with the non-rich

I got a core dump, and determined that somehow this isn't about the kernel, but clearly something about the newer kernel triggers a bug. In pppd/utils.c, the vslprintf() trips up for a few reasons. One is that pppd/options.c, print_option() seems to use printer() with the wrong number of arguments

Actually, you likely do have hardware for the serial ports. It's part of the legacy ISA stuff in your north bridge. Just your laptop does not have the pins hooked up to a DB9. My laptop's docking station exposes those. What I think is that memtest86 should look for console= in the kernel config
