sorry for disappearing i was trying to get linux to write boot logs to a receipt printer

1) grub REALLY does not like a receipt printer at COM1
2) i have yet to learn if it’s possible to let the kernel think tty1 doesn’t exist, while redirecting the keyboard to ttyS0 input, and let ttyS0 output to be printed onto the receipt printer. do not send information on this topic, i want to sleep.

a receipt printer with a pretty long alpine linux boot log

there’s a few rolls of grub output behind the receipt printer

how do i even explain to lucifer when i die that, the reason i committed grave environmental sins and have like 6 meters of receipt paper with GRUB instructions on them is that GRUB sends the whole line to the serial port and the receipt printer would print the whole line despite a one character update

a handful of receipt paper tools with GRUB logs on them
