Description Richard Scott 2006-10-01 13:49:15 UTC
Hi,

I've noticed that if you boot a GNAP system that has no serial port then the inittab entry for gnap-agetty gets disabled and casues errors to be reported on the screen.

Is there any way we could add a USE_SERIAL option into the overlay.conf file?
That way if we don't want or need a serial login we can remove it.

Thanks

Rich

The GNAP project has been discontinued, its removal was acknowledged by steev.

If you need to, you can contact the Gentoo Embedded project; more information about the Gentoo Embedded project can be found on the following link:

http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/embedded/

This removal happens as part of project cleanup by the Gentoo Council's members.
