Greetings
Bit of a puzzle with netconsole operation.
If I undef CFG_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV, then I can boot to the serial console
and manually switch it to nc and it works great. Problem with that is
that on boot it just uses the first device that has the correct in/out
properties - i.e. serial and ignores any env setting.
If I define CFG_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV, then the netconsole stuff refuses to
run (i.e. it doesn't use serial but it doesn't use nc either!!) - even
though when checking with the BDI2000 I can see that the correct nc
devices have been set up in the dev structures. If I start up in serial
and then try to switch to nc it just doesn't work - it continues to use
serial.
Any clues from anyone? Should netconsole be able to run from bootup?
