Grub Variables
Hello
Im booting Debian KfreeBSD and FreeBSD from the same Zpool. Each OS in one
Subvolume. Grub is installed manually stored on the top of the Zpool.
my grub.cfg has been pasted nice formated on
http://debianforum.de/forum/pastebin.php?mode=view&s=35157 too
# Setting up the serial line on COM1
insmod serial
serial --speed=9600 --unit=0 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1
terminal_output serial
terminal_input serial
# Timeout for menu
set timeout=5
# Set default boot entry as Entry 0
set default=0
menuentry "FreeBSD 8.1 RELEASE AMD64 on pool/freebsd8" {
kfreebsd /freebsd8@/boot/kernel/kernel
kfreebsd_module_elf /freebsd8@/boot/kernel/opensolaris.ko
kfreebsd_module_elf /freebsd8@/boot/kernel/zfs.ko
kfreebsd_module_elf /freebsd8@/boot/kernel/smbus.ko
kfreebsd_module_elf /freebsd8@/boot/kernel/ipmi.ko
kfreebsd_module /freebsd8@/boot/zfs/zpool.cache
type=/boot/zfs/zpool.cache
set kFreeBSD.vfs.root.mountfrom=zfs:pool/freebsd8
}
menuentry "Debian KfreeBSD Rescue AMD64 on pool/debian" {
kfreebsd /debian@/boot/kfreebsd-8.1-1-amd64.gz
kfreebsd_module_elf
/debian@/lib/modules/8.1-1-amd64/opensolaris.ko
kfreebsd_module_elf /debian@/lib/modules/8.1-1-amd64/zfs.ko
kfreebsd_module_elf /debian@/lib/modules/8.1-1-amd64/smbus.ko
kfreebsd_module_elf /debian@/lib/modules/8.1-1-amd64/ipmi.ko
kfreebsd_module /debian@/boot/zfs/zpool.cache
type=/boot/zfs/zpool.cache
set kFreeBSD.vfs.root.mountfrom=zfs:pool/debian
}
The Box has no monitor and should be administrated with SSH or in worst
case with Serial over IPMI.
And thats the tricky thing for me. How do I have to configure the COM1 to
start at boot time from Debian KfreeBSD FreeBSD?
Entries in the loader.conf
boot_multicons="YES"
boot_serial="YES"
comconsole_speed="19200"
console="comconsole,vidconsole"
So what i have to write in the grub.cfg?
set kFreeBSD.comconsole_speed=19200 ??
and for the rest??
I hope someone can tell me the Trick :)
kind regards Darko Hojnik
