I also noticed, that there was an error in registering serial port no. 4, which I believe is reported by somebody else, too. I got the kernel sources and changed the .config file (based on the i686 version) with menuconfig in 3 places: raised the runtime serial ports to 32, changed the CPU to Athlon and set the kernel debug parameter to 'n'. It apparently solved the problem, but now I am definitely missing the listing of found tty devices in /var/log/dmesg. How do I get this back without compiling a whole lot of debug code into the kernel ? you don't need to rebuild the kernel, you can boot with 8250.nr_uarts=32 or however many you need. |
