Well after I got home this afternoon, I started downloading a daily build to
test,
but I also accidentally happened to boot the laptop in question with the BETA
disc
still in, and it worked this time. I thought - what's different??? Turns out
I had moved
the laptop and unplugged the ethernet cable. Without the ethernet cable plugged
in, it boots the BETA CD fine. With it plugged in, I get the error previously
mentioned.
I've tried it six times with and without, and it seems to be consistent. The
NIC
chip in the laptop I believe is the SIS900 if that helps.
when the daily build finishes downloading, I will try it and report back
findings.

Subject: [Bug 99843] Re: "tty" missing from busybox in feisty BETA
The error message "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off"
isn't a bug in itself (FYI it is printed because Busybox can't obtain a
controlling terminal because it is running on /dev/console).
The reason why you've got this message is because something in the
kernel boot has failed. Normally when this happens (without the splash
screen), a kernel error will be printed just before the BusyBox: line.
Can you boot the Beta CD in 'recovery mode' and see if any error
messages are printed? If they're printed, can you write them down and
attach to this bug report, or if possible take a digital photo of the
screen, and attach that. Thanks,
