It is annoying when we have dead links on fd.o. Add project='man-pages|die-net|archlinux' to <citerefentry>-ies. In generated html, add external links to http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man, http://linux.die.net/man/, https://www.archlinux.org/. By default, pages in sections 2 and 4 go to man7, since Michael Kerrisk is the autorative source on kernel related stuff. The rest of links goes to linux.die.net, because they have the manpages. Except for the pacman stuff, since it seems to be only available from archlinux.org. Poor gummiboot gets no link, because gummitboot(8) ain't to be found on the net. According to common wisdom, that would mean that it does not exist. But I have seen Kay using it, so I know it does, and deserves to be found. Can somebody be nice and put it up somewhere?

<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>
