Console on other than UART0?

[dlchambers]

BBB's J1 connects to UART0, and this is used for the serial console.

Is it possible to run the console on a different UART, and/or run another instance of the console on a different UART while concurrently running a console on UART0 ?

If this is possible, the procedure to do it on Debian would be appreciated.

Thanks!

On the bottom of this page will give you a clue:

Why are no boot messages visible on a custom kernel?

• Passing the wrong bootargs to the kernel is a possible cause. Linux kernels >= 2.6.36 are using ttyOn instead ttySn for the serials on OMAP, so set console=ttyO2,115200n8 in U-boot.

Regards,

John

Yes, you can use different UART and Run
 check console ls -l /dev/ttyO*
Result
crw--w---- 1 root tty     248, 0 Jan  1  2000 /dev/ttyO0
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 248, 1 Nov 10 13:23 /dev/ttyO1
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 248, 4 Nov 10 14:37 /dev/ttyO4
 than which want to open UART port
root@beaglebone:~# minicom -D /dev/ttyO4 -b 9600 for example

Yes.

No; however, it would not be difficult to add this support.
What is your use-case?
