There are a dozen ways to slice this apple. Mike Kershaw did one as a compiled executable. I have one that is a simple shell script called frin /etc/inittab. (See attached.) Add the following line to /etc/inittab:
~~:01236:respawn:/sbin/suloginv /dev/console If there is a 'getty' set to run on your console, turn it off, perhaps like this: #1:01236:respawn:/sbin/mingetty console
#!/bin/sh # # # Date: 2000-Sep-16 (Sun) # # CONSOLE="$1" if [ -z "$CONSOLE" ] ; then CONSOLE=/dev/console ; fi PS1=`hostname` #PS1="$PS1 # " PS1="$PS1 \\\$ " export PS1 SHELL=/bin/sh if [ -x /sbin/sh ] ; then SHELL=/sbin/sh ; fi exec $SHELL -i 0<$CONSOLE 1>$CONSOLE 2>$CONSOLE
