Jeff Dike4c9e1382007-10-16 01:26:54 -070016 The User-Mode Linux environment allows you to create virtual serial
17 lines on the UML that are usually made to show up on the host as
18 ttys or ptys.

Jeff Dike4c9e1382007-10-16 01:26:54 -070028 This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial
29 lines to a device similar to /dev/null. Data written to it disappears

Jeff Dike4c9e1382007-10-16 01:26:54 -070035 This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial
36 lines to host portals. They may be accessed with 'telnet <host>
37 <port number>'. Any number of consoles and serial lines may be
38 attached to a single portal, although what UML device you get when
39 you telnet to that portal will be unpredictable.

Jeff Dike4c9e1382007-10-16 01:26:54 -070045 This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial
46 lines to host pseudo-terminals. Access to both traditional

49 will be announced in the kernel message log.
