I got a headless server running Sarge, where i have configured init to launch a getty on ttyS0 like this in /etc/inittab: T1:S12345:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 38400 linux
This have worked just fine, connecting with minicom from a workstation. But when /var became nearly full, and i changed to init 1 to move /var to a larger partition, my console shut down. The script /etc/init.d/single kills all processes, then switches to single user mode, and executes the line "~~:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin" in inittab but not the getty on the serial console. I have read the manpages init and inittab, and can't see why my entry fails to start. __ Frode Haugsgjerd Norway -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
