A.2. Red Hat Linux
7.1 and SysVinit
The System V init system shipped
with Red Hat Linux
7.1 does not support serial console
correctly in single user mode. See Red Hat advisory
RHBA-2001:085-02 New
SysVinit package to fix hangs on serial
console. The advisory announces an
update to the package

7.1 CD.
