Re: [Gumstix-users] To free ttyS0

[Dave H. <dhy...@gm...>]

ttyS0 is the console. However, you can turn that off by following the
steps over here:
http://docswiki.gumstix.org/Tips_and_tricks#Free_ttyS0

Craig has already removed the "Uncompressing the kernel" message from
the boot, so no extra patching is required.

There are only two things using ttyS0 by default, the first is the
console output and the second is a busbox shell. Both of these issues
are discussed on the link above.
