Re: 2.6.12-rc2 netconsole problem

Nope, that's how netconsole works, it's not
interactive (like console is
after init is spawned).

Not interactive? I meant to use netconsole to repalce
the mointor serial console. Meanwhile, I implemented 
netconsole on the target in u-boot and it did get a
interactive console. Maybe I can try telnet after 

It seems you failed to read the doc/README.NetConsole fle that  comes
with  the  U-Boot sources. This explains clearly that while in U-Boot
the netconsole implementation is bidirectional, the  Linux  coede  is
unidirectional only.

netconsole to get a net console in Linux? Sound a 
little bit complicated than what I thought:-)

You should not use telnet for  obvious  security  problems.  Use  ssh
instead.  But  from  the technical side it is perfectly fine to use a
remote login through telnet or rsh or ssh...

Oops, I read README.NetConsole again and found the 
line in the last part. Sorry for that. I tend to 
make a mistake to do sth in the first time:-)

OK, good idea to try. 

Thanks very much indeed,
