heh! [grin/sigh]

The 'ol "not found" portion of that message seems devastatingly obvious to
me now. Thanks for being so polite in pointing that out.

I did as you suggested:

/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 9600 vt100

and after hanging for a couple of seconds I then got my prompt back. Before
I go any further this way I am going to follow up on the issues surrounding
serial.o and recheck my configuration.

Respectfully,
Eric

Actually, you need to type:
/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 9600 vt100

The "T0:23:respawn:" is part of the init configuration, not part of the
getty command...
