This worked. For my example I will let the guest start on tty8 and spawn gettys on tty8 and tty9. Steps: - create /dev/tty8 (major 4, minor 8) - create /dev/tty9 (major 4, minor 9) - create /dev/console (major 4, minor 8) - add "c8:2345:respawn:sbin/getty 38400 tty8 linux" to inittab - add "c9:2345:respawn:sbin/getty 38400 tty9 linux" to inittab Then start/restart the guest and output appears as expected. Guest is configured using init style "plain" Bruno _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list [email protected] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
