Remove hardcoded console=ttyS0,115200 configuration from VyOS boot configuration #1494

Closed turegano-equinix closed 1 month ago

turegano-equinix commented 1 month ago

This change removes the console=ttyS0,115200 configuration from the VyOS boot configuration in roles/netbootxyz/templates/menu/boot.cfg.j2. This setting is causing issues with VyOS installation on Equinix Metal as the console is not visible during boot.

Console configuration is done in https://github.com/netbootxyz/netboot.xyz/blob/development/roles/netbootxyz/templates/menu/boot.cfg.j2

Examples: x86_64 https://github.com/netbootxyz/netboot.xyz/blob/development/roles/netbootxyz/templates/menu/boot.cfg.j2#L120 arm64 https://github.com/netbootxyz/netboot.xyz/blob/development/roles/netbootxyz/templates/menu/boot.cfg.j2#L129

Thanks, this should be handled by the ${cmdline} flag but was probably getting superseded by the hardcoded console.
