Hi everybody,

I'm trying to create an Ubuntu Server 16.04 image with some preload software. I followed the "How To.." guide ( http://www.eve-ng.com/documentation/how ... inux-image) step by step and everything works as a charm till the point that I want to set the serial port for telnet connection instead of VNC. I type the two commands

sed -i 's/GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=.*/GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0"/' /etc/default/grub

update-grub

but anything seems to change.

Is it any step that I am not getting?

Thanks in advance for your help

on the same link is prepared ready to go image for eve...

Yes thanks, I've seen those but there no ubuntu server from terminal anymore. So, no one can help? Am I really the only one that want to use ubuntu server from my pc terminal?? LoL

I dont know what are you doing there but this options for Server 16.04.4 works like charm

11. OPTION: For servers you can set serial console for telnet use instad of vnc.
Warning !!! Use the following command INSIDE the node cli. DO NOT use inside EVE-NG CLI !!!!!

sed -i 's/GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=.*/GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0"/' /etc/default/grub

update-grub

after update grub telnet native sessions works like charm

tip instead of reboot node, do stop/start node

I am using the EVE-NG community edition. Should I change any template setting??

I promise I'm following the instructions step by step but it doesn't work. Whit what Ubuntu image should I work? I'm using the ubuntu 16 server fresh downloaded from ubuntu

To avoid typing error I have also tried connecting through SSH from my local pc an copy and paste the command but nothing. I shutdown, change the console to telnet, reboot and I have just a black session with the cursor that does't move. No errors, no messages, nothing

we have prepared Ubuntu server with this method...
