Serial output on Virtualbox

[mashmashingaidze]

Hi

I have managed to install OXE R8.0 on Virtualbox. When i run it , it says switching to serial output and the screen remains the same.

Any idea how i can get the serial output to setup the ip parameters and load the licenses ?

used guide in old alcatelunleshed forum and instructions from site below

though written for vmware, it also works for virtualbox

Thx for the forum

Putty can use the named pipe directly, so you might not need the named pipe proxy.

Install OXE in Blade mode, not Appliance.
With Blade, you have console directly, but keyboard in english.
loadkeys is the command to load keyboard configuration.

I've installed a OXE in Blade Mode but there is no output on the "virtual" screen after reboot.
there is only the message on screen that says "output redirected to serial" (like in appliance installation.) But Serial Ports are not configured. Any sugestions?
