That explains my problem, thanks. Do you know why that is (maybe so
that 'init' cannot be killed from keyboard)?

Alas that doesn't seem to work from rootfstype:
# openvt /dev/tty0
Couldnt get a file descriptor referring to the console
Could not get a file descriptor referring to the console

I also tried
# tty
/dev/console
# exec < /dev/tty0 > /dev/tty0 2>/dev/tty0
# tty
/dev/tty0

But that actually doesn't help.

I'll try to isolate what getty does, as Jeff suggested; apparently it
registers some signals as well.
