[PATCH] um: change defconfig to stop spawning xterm

From: Ramkumar Ramachandra
Date: Fri Jul 19 2013 - 14:24:42 EST


The default configuration dictates that um Linux will launch xterms
connected to various tty devices on the host. It makes more sense to
connect to /dev/pts/N, so that the host can:

$ screen /dev/pts/N

or

$ minicom /dev/pts/N

to start talking to the guest session. Note that
con0 (CONFIG_CON_ZERO_CHAN) still defaults to "fd:0,fd:1", printing boot
messages on the same terminal.

Further, I will patch systemd to getty on con0 when um Linux is
detected. Thanks for all the help, and sorry I took so long to
figure it out.

Applies on top of the patch I sent earlier.
