-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The big problem your having I think is that you aren't listing the terminal type on the command line for agetty. You have to do that or the program won't know what terminal to emulate. Because your not listing one, it is trying to use ttytype to find a mapping. That file is used to map specific tty lines to specific terminal types. The solution is to specifically list the terminal type. IN this case, the type should be linux and it should go right after the tty line specification. So, your line should look like this: c6:1235:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty6 linux - --- Joseph C.
