How to gain access to the installed partition of XG Firewall to modify boot so only text is seen via console

Ghost Coder

Hi All,

I recently managed to install SW-17.5.9_MR-9-577 on a Check Point 2200 device, but once XG has installed and the device is rebooted all the text seen on the console is junk.

I tried to see the boot partition in Linux and Windows but the entire disk is show to have nothing on it but yet it boots.

How can I gain access to the boot folder/partition so I can modify it to send all text to the serial port?

 

Thanks,

    SSH to the FW, go to the advanced shell (Option 5, then Option 3.)

    The boot folder is at /boot

    The grub cfg file is at /boot/grub/grub.cfg

    You can use vim to edit the file.

    Hi,

    also check your console connection speed is set to 38000 from memory otherwise you will get garbled text.
