In the server world, I'm pretty sure you are significantly underestimating the number of systems with a custom inittab, although automatic handling of all the various ways to spawn a useful serial console would cut down the numbers somewhat. But we're pretty late in the release cycle to do enough analysis to try to figure out what those all are. (Where I've worked, this has always been custom, replacing /etc/inittab with a local configuration file, so the analysis isn't trivial.) -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
