In the following document: http://dev.gentoo.org/~armin76/arm/beaglebone/install.xml the following line: s0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 115200 ttyO0 vt100 should be updated to the following: s0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -L 115200 ttyO0 vt100
Actually, the status quo is correct with the latest ARM stage I used as of a few days ago, but once I did an emerge world the above correction became necessary.
I need to update the guide a bit more
