- We are running a HP9000/750 with HP-UX 8.07. Getting tired of the most
- important error messages to the console scrolling off the top of the
- screen, I decided to make a 300 baud Decwriter II our system console instead
- of the HP terminal we had been using. To do this I changed:
-
- /etc/inittab: now reads --
- stty::sysinit:stty 300 cs7 parenb -parodd clocal icanon echo \
- opost onlcr -ienqak ixon icrnl ignpar </dev/systty
-
- /etc/gettydefs: now reads --
- console # B300 SANE CLOCAL CS7 PARENB ISTRIP IXANY TAB3 HUPCL
- #Console Login: #console
-
- ESCAPED the boot sequence, went into "Boot Administration mode" and:
- PATH console rs232_a.300.7.even<CR>
- reset
-
- This is close to working as I wish except when I `shutdown'; then the
- console goes to 9600 baud. When I `reboot' it goes back to 300.
-
- Did I forget something or ... ?
