7.3. Remove saved console settings
The file /etc/ioctl.save contains the
serial and terminal parameters to use in single user mode. The
serial and terminal parameters are usually set by
getty — during single user mode no
getty runs and the contents of
/etc/ioctl.save are used to set the serial and
terminal parameters.
As we are changing consoles, the saved settings are no longer
correct.
We re-create this file once we can log in from the serial
console.
