I need to add a parameter to the grub entry for ubuntu.

console=ttyl

how do i set this? I know how to do it manually for each boot but how do i set it to be automatically passed as a param?

I am using GRUB 2 and Ubuntu 11.10

Thanks, Speed

If you want this parameter to be permanently added to your default linux boot parameters you should modify the GRUB configuration file.
Edit your “/etc/default/grub” and modify the appropriate line to be something like GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash console=ttyl".
Save the file and run update-grub so that changes will take affect.
