This has been fixed in the 2.4.3 release. This bloated the kernel image to 600k+ which in an embedded world is not a good thing :-) 2) In 2.4.3 the console port using ttySX is broken. It dumps fine to the terminal but when you get to a point of entering data (login, configuration scripts, etc) the terminal does not accept any input. So far I have been able to debug to the point where I see that the kernel is receiving the characters from the serial.c driver. But it never echos them or does anything else with them. I will continue to look into this at this end. I was also wondering if anyone else has seen this or if a patch is avail for this bug??
