(In reply to Dinar Valeev from comment #12) AFAICS you *are* working on hvc0 that is that there had been an agetty as well as a login. Otherwise the terminal of the grep command would'nt be hvc0. > Also I don't see system boot output during boot Wrong order of console=hvc0,38400 console=tty0 switch the order to console=tty0 console=hvc0,38400 as with this the last one becomes the main console. Or use plymouth to see boot messages on both devices. There is no blogd anymore and systemd write to /dev/console which is printed on the main device only. Beside this I'd like to see systemctl status --all dev-hvc0.device (In reply to Dinar Valeev from comment #8) > I don't see the same behaviour on installed system.
