Hey everyone,
Just saw this myself and I've got a fix:
Restart the install system and choose to execute a shell. Now, mount
your hard drive. I have debian on the forth partition on my second hard
disk so for _me_ it's:
#mount /dev/hdb4 /mnt
If you look in /mnt/etc you'll see two files: inittab and inittab.real.
The inittab that you've got there now is what launches base config and
inittab.real (you guessed it) is the real inittab. So:
#mv /mnt/etc/inittab /mnt/etc/inittab.backup
#mv /mnt/etc/inittab.real /mnt/etc/inittab
HTH,
Andy
