      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.
