I got it working by just adding this line to /etc/inittab:

ttyS1::askfirst:/bin/ash --login

However, there are two issues with this approach:

  • It doesn't give a login prompt, just takes me directly to the shell (after showing the "what will you invent today?" banner). That's fine for now, but I'm curious how to turn the login on and off (the --login switch seems to have no effect).

  • The baud rate defaults to 115200. I can force it to 2400 with this command, but I have to ssh in to do it. If I add it to /etc/rc.local that probably will be too late (need to test it).

stty -F /dev/ttyS1 2400

On other systems like Raspberry Pi I just use agetty, but that doesn't seem to be available for the Omega?

Just curious if there's a better way I could go about this.
