------------------ Additional Follow-up Comments ----------------------------
As GRUB modifies the status of a serial controller when
initializing it, I think anything wrong could happen.

BTW, I'm wondering why you want to enable GRUB's own
serial support, if your BIOS supports serial console
transparently.

Thanks,
Okuji

Summary:  serial command freezes grub if serial redirection of BIOS is enabled

Original Submission:  On certain boxes the serial command freezes grub. This is 
seen primarily on Intel motherboards with serial redirection of the BIOS screen 
enabled.

Might be related to a prior report on the grub-bug mailinglist from June
http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/bug-grub/2002-June/007583.html


Hints on how to proceed in diagnosing what the error may be would be preciated.
