Specifically, with minicom running on 2.6.25.3, the console does not
accept keystrokes although it does receive the boot log from the

The serial console is being exported by a 2.6.25.3 kernel, and
appears to be working correctly.

Serial console using minicom works fine for me under 2.6.25 and
2.6.25.4. Keystrokes are accepted normally.
