Using network based console.

Please forgive me, but I am a relative newbie.  I am using MVL Linux 2.6.18 on a DM365 platform.  I would like information about configuring my kernel to run the console that does not come out the serial port, but goes to a virtual console that I can access using telnet or something.  What kernel options/configuration need I use?

Also, is there a tenet server program that I can easily add to my initramfs?

    You can try to use "Dropbear" which is a lightweight SSH server/client.  If you are using Arago or OpenEmbedded for generating your root filesystem, there is a recipe that will install Dropbear for you. Once it is installed, it will automatically start an SSH server on your board at startup, you can then freely access it from a remote PC.
