**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Oct 01 02:59:58 2013 Oct 01 10:49:46 what spawns login on ttyO2 on Pandaboard Ubuntu? doesn't seem to be upstart... Oct 01 10:50:00 i'd like to run commands at startup and have them print to the serial console. i could do this with upstart using /etc/init/ttyO2.conf but then 2 login processes are using the same serial console. Oct 01 10:50:22 i have ttyO2 in kernel parameters but this shouldn't automatically spawn login on that console? Oct 01 10:51:01 which image is that ? Oct 01 10:51:17 (server ? desktop ?= Oct 01 10:51:19 ) Oct 01 10:53:13 should be server Oct 01 10:53:24 12.04 LTS Oct 01 10:55:40 and you used the serial install ? Oct 01 10:55:53 there should be an upstart job for ttyO2 then Oct 01 10:56:15 this is a dd'd image, wait a sec. Oct 01 10:57:20 downloaded from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04/release/ Oct 01 10:59:09 ogra_: and indeed, grep -R ttyO2 /etc doesn't yield anything (unless i write ttyO2.conf myself) Oct 01 10:59:28 and writing it myself spawns 2 logins. Oct 01 11:24:33 well, i think i'll resort to a never-ending init script Oct 01 11:26:52 though it would be really nice to know what is spawning it... Oct 01 11:44:06 ah i think it's /etc/init/serial.conf Oct 01 11:44:21 it greps console= from /proc/cmdline and starts getty on it :P **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Oct 02 02:59:58 2013
