Re: How to disable console on serial when needed ?

Hello,

I have explained. You have NOT understood what I said. I explained what
the linux console is - it is has NOTHING to do with user logins!!! The
kernel has absolutely no knowledge of how a user "logs in" - that is all
handled in user space.

You are right, but that doesn't help much here.
If you use a serial console, you most probably will start some getty-process
or simply a shell on it. But,whether you do or nor, the kernel will print
onto this console, too, and his question is simply:

"How can I completely disable / redirect the console after booting?"
(If I'm wrong here, then please correct me. This is what I understood.)

You have to see it in context - it is about getty processes and whatever,
but also the kernel messages are important.

Regards,
Sebastian
