[Bug] [1.0Beta4] - Disable console menu

rds_correia · May 17, 2006, 10:10 PM

I believe I had already submitted this in the timeline as a bug.
But in all honesty I just can't find it anymore.
So, has anyone else been experiencing difficulties in disabling the console menu on Beta4?

@Devs,
Is this already reported as a bug?
BTW, I was using the LiveCD version when I bumped into this one.

Cheers

Did you reboot? and where did you store your configfile when using the livecd?

I already rebooted 3 or 4 times.
FYI I was already experiencing this issue with Beta3.
And recently I upgraded to Beta4 and the bug is still there.
So this was not a Beta4 fresh install ;).
I'm storing my config.xml in the harddrive.
Thanks for such a fast reply :)
Cheers

To fix this, /etc/gettytab needs replacing with a fresh version, hence needing a full install to fix.

And I can backup my configfile and restore it after I do a fresh install, right?
I'll try it hopefully until Friday ;).

Dumb question, but doesn't serial console require a loader.conf change which can't be accomplished on a read only CD?
Should still be able to enable a login on the serial port regardless though.
