Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal


The installer, when run with a serial console, does configure some
parts of the system to account for this, but not all.

When I run the installer (from debian-6.0.5-i386-businesscard.iso) and
edit the installer's kernel command line to include
"console=ttyS0,9600n8", the installed system then has a getty on ttyS0
configured in inittab, and "GRUB_TERMINAL=serial" plus
"GRUB_SERIAL_COMMAND" in /etc/default/grub, so the installed system
works with that serial console.

What is missing, however, is the matching "console=ttyS0..." parameter
in "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX", so the boot messages go to the VGA console
and (if the boot suceeds) the next thing I see on the serial console
is the login prompt.

regards,

cm.

I have now tried again, and it succeeded, so apparently the bug got
fixed.
