Fixed /dev/console and booted 2.2.13: Same type of problem: Cleaning: /tmp /var/lock /var/run. Initializing random number generator... done. Recovering nvi editor sessions... done. zs_open ttyS0, tty overwrite. zs_open ttyS0, tty overwrite. zs_open ttyS0, tty overwrite. zs_open ttyS0, tty overwrite. ...... And then the kernel panic after a while. I disabled nviboot: still does it. It looks like it's doing it right when it's in runlevel 'S', right before it goes runlevel 2.
