Gang, The console initialization on alpha has been reworked to not require the many alpha specific kluges in the various drivers (gfb, sio and syscons). Consequently, one now needs the well-known hints that one needs on other platforms for things to work. In particular, you might want to add: hint.sio.0.flags="0x10" hint.sio.1.flags="0x80" Without these hints you won't have a serial console. FYI, -- Marcel Moolenaar USPA: A-39004 marcel@xcllnt.net
