<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><filename>systemd-getty-generator</filename> is a generator
|
|
that automatically instantiates
|
|
<filename>serial-getty@.service</filename> on the kernel console
|
|
<filename>/dev/console</filename> if that is not directed to the
|
|
virtual console subsystem. It will also instantiate
|
|
<filename>serial-getty@.service</filename> instances for
|
|
virtualizer consoles, if execution in a virtualized environment is
|
|
detected. Finally, it will instantiate
|
|
<filename>container-getty@.service</filename> instances for
|
|
additional container pseudo TTYs as requested by the container
|
|
manager (see <ulink
|
|
url="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ContainerInterface/"><filename>Container
|
|
Interface</filename></ulink>). This should ensure that the user is
|
|
shown a login prompt at the right place, regardless of which
|
|
environment the system is started in. For example, it is
|
|
sufficient to redirect the kernel console with a kernel command
|
|
line argument such as <varname>console=</varname> to get both
|
|
kernel messages and a getty prompt on a serial TTY. See <ulink
|
|
url="https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt"><filename>kernel-parameters.txt</filename></ulink>
|
|
for more information on the <varname>console=</varname> kernel
|
|
parameter.</para>
|
|
|
