Hi,

I was setting up a new machine, and was having cabling difficulties. I 
was getting so many error messages on the console that I couldn't really 
do anything without <CTRL-L>ing every other second.

How can you make a syslog free console? Is there any way I can make 
/dev/console appear only on ttyv0?

I even changed the /dev/console line to /dev/null in /etc/syslog.conf and 
HUP syslog but it still didn't work. Is there such an option in either 
/etc/syslog.conf or /etc/ttys to fix this?


Thanks,
Kevin
