[Devil-linux-develop] [PATCH] serial console added (optional) to install-on-usb

[Frank P. <pi...@we...>]

Hello,
here comes a small patch adding the option of a serial console to 
the grub boot loader configuration.
The user will get a basic configuration of a serial console in grub and can 
change for example the serial speed later, when the config file is loaded 
into editor during the installtion process.
Additionally a normal VGA console is configured.
I'm tired to change this again and again :-)

Please review/check/apply.
If you think this is too much selection, then at least the example of a serial 
console should to the comment part inside of the grub.conf file.

Regards
Frank

Thanks for the patch, I added it to my todo list.
It most likely will be a while until I get a chance to work on it.

I know it took a while, but I just applied your patch to CVS.
