Hi, I'm running ipmitool. When a run a SOL session, I would like to see and use the grub menu, which is presented when the machine boots. Is it possible? What should I do? Thanks, Erez |

Is this the graphical or the text menu? The text menu works for me assuming you have the right font and terminal emulation. To enable text mode, make sure you have lines like the following commented out: #splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz --David > Hi, > > I'm running ipmitool.

I tried to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst:

gfxmenu (hd0,0)/boot/message

I'm running the ipmitool with the following parameters:
ipmitool -H 172.30.112.2 -U admin -P admin -I lanplus sol activate
I still don't see the grub menu. Did I miss anything?
Thanks,

1) disable #gfxmenu (hd0,0)/boot/message
2) Maybe you can try to try: serial --unit=3D1 or 0 or 2
3) Braud rate console=3DttyS0,38400 -> console=3DttyS0,38400n8 or =
19200n8

Thanks for your response. I tried to use many values for --unit (and removed gfxmenu (hd1,1)/boot/message), but I still don't see the grub menu. Instead, I see something like: machine restart ZhIC (acpi_id[0x01] lapic_id[0x04] enabled) Processor #4 6:15 APIC version 20 ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x02] lapic_id[0x01] enabled) Processor #1 6:15 APIC version 20 ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x03] lapic_id[0x05] enabled) Processor #5 6:15 APIC version 20 ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x04] lapic_id[0x02] enabled) Processor #2 6:15 APIC version 20 ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x05] lapic_id[0x06] enabled) Processor #6 6:15 APIC version 20 ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x06] lapic_id[0x03] enabled) Processor #3 6:15 APIC version 20 ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x07] lapic_id[0x07] enabled) BTW - I am able to see the outputs sent by the kernel when the machine boots. The grub entry seems like: kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sdb2 vga=0x314 resume=/dev/sda2 splash=silent showopts console=ttyS0,38400 console=tty0 I am also able to see kernel output later.

I do see two things wrong in your menu.lst: serial --unit=2 ... ... kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sdb2 vga=0x314 resume=/dev/sda2 splash=silent showopts console=ttyS0,38400 console=tty0 First, unit=2 means COM3 (unit=0,1,2), and this conflicts with console=ttyS0 meaning COM1.
