Lovely, thanks Jan. This is just what I needed (the boot option). Thanks for the extra info too, always good to get a better understanding.
Cheers, Simon

The right way:
I want to attach to the output stream of an existing terminal. I want to "tee" that output to the serial device so I can send it to another machine that will log and save the output. The terminal in question is created and started by "the system". It is acutally /dev/tty10, and is receiving log messages about kernel activity.
One or more of these:
* Boot with `console=ttyS0 console=tty0` to copy kernel messages to both ttyS0 and the regular console. This should DTRT for Oops and Panics
* use net console [snip]
Does anyone have a how to or more info on "net console" I did a quick google and did not seem to find anything I thought was relevant... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
