List; In regards to /etc/inittab being altered to spawn a getty on ttyS3 on reboot. <See earlier posts for more detail>
Tried the egrep -r (through the entire filesystem) and ttyS3 shows up in /dev/mem, /dev/core, /dev/kmem/, /etc/inittab and in /var/run/stab, some docs,/usr/include/asm/serial.h and in the logs. Thanks for the tip, Chet! Much cleaner than "for i in `find /dir`; do ls -l &&cat $i|grep ttyS0;done" I am leaning towards it being PCMCIA related as one other person on the list noted the same thing on a laptop. Slowly eliminating what it is not, although I prefer those quantum leaps of intuition! Thanks Tom
