Booting over serial port with -c
>Description:
I'm booting with the console on the serial port.
When I go into visual config mode, the system start's to print the
categories of active drivers.
Every time the cursor moves, it redraws the area where
I/O port stuff would be (it just erases it with blanks) and
the bottom line(s) of the screen ("[Enter] Expand device list...")
This makes visual very slow to use on a 9600bps line.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run visual config on a slow terminal.
