Hi All,
I'd like to configure an sles 8 server for serial access, even for
fsck'ing. Grub is configured so that I get the grub menu and login
prompt once the system has finished booting, but I can't access the
system in between those two points, everything is redirected to the
local video and keyboard. I'm unable to control the system to fsck the
disks, which is a big concern. I've pasted a copy of the menu.lst
below. Any help would be appreciated!
MENU.LST:
