Description Daniel Drake 2013-12-27 17:49:30 UTC
The kernel can accept multiple console= arguments, see: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Remote-Serial-Console-HOWTO/configure-kernel.html

ostree doesn't allow this though. The way that the kernel args are saved in a hash table destroys the repeated console= arguments.
Comment 1 Colin Walters 2014-01-02 16:32:23 UTC
Right.  I think we'd need to keep the "replace-or-append" behavior of the current --karg.  How about --karg-append ?
Comment 2 Daniel Drake 2014-01-03 14:48:04 UTC
I guess that would work. When deploying a tree for the first time I would just pass all args to --karg-append instead of --karg?
