Hi fellow OSFers!
DECAlpha 2000/300

Has anyone attempted starting a getty process on a serial line -
specifically /dev/tty00?
When I enter:
/usr/sbin/getty /dev/tty00 9600 vt100
on the command line, I get no errors, but ps shows no getty process
running. I've also tried putting the appropriate line into inittab -
tty00:23:respawn:/usr/sbin/getty /dev/tty00 9600 vt100
and forcing a read by using "init q", but still no success.
Am I missing something? Should I go back to bed and forget the
whole thing?
Many thanks for any enlightenment.
Lyn
