Comment 1 John T Mills 2022-04-01 15:04:50 UTC

For serial console functionality the above needs to be added to custom images.  This config is present in the Red Hat RHEL 8.5 (LVM) generation 2 image in the Azure marketplace.

Comment 8 Daniel Vozenilek 2022-06-10 12:35:12 UTC

Thank you for the feedback.
The GRUB configuration for custom RHEL images for Azure has been updated.
