Hi, You can control number of default consoles want to be given after the startup. You will have to make changes to /etc/inittab file. The part of the script looks like as :
# System initialization. si::sysinit:/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit l0:0:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 0 l1:1:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 1 l2:2:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 2 l3:3:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 3 l4:4:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 4 l5:5:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 5 l6:6:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 6 These are all indicates the number of console. ( 7 tty/console are in the above example). You can always remove or Put "#" infront of the unwanted lines. For example to open only two consoles I would write : l0:0:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 0 l1:1:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 1 -Vinayak On 4/13/05, Mandar BANDEKAR <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi All, > I am a newbie in Linux and just wanted to know the way to control the > number of consoles that open at the startup.
