I'm assuming you didn't add a video card to the system. You need to |
| 2 |
specify console=ttyS0 for the console to be pushed to the serial port. |

I don't know if the ISO starts a getty process on the serial port, |
| 4 |
however. Also, beta3 doesn't have the broadcom gigabit driver needed |
| 5 |
for the onboard ethernet ports. |
