If you are running a stock FreeBSD 1.1.5 system you can ignore the
rest of this section. If not, make sure you have a spare virtual
console which is running a login process (getty). First check how
many virtual consoles you have:
% dmesg|grep sc
sc0 at 0x60-0x6f irq 1 on motherboard
sc0: VGA color <8 virtual consoles>
Then check /etc/ttys to make sure there is at least one ttyv? devices
which doesn't have a getty enabled. FreeBSD 1.1.5 has the first three
``on'' and the last ``off'' so that getty runs on only three:
% grep ttyv /etc/ttys
ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure
ttyv1 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure
ttyv2 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure
ttyv3 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 off secure
If your kernel has least 4 VTs and only 3 gettys, this is fine. If
not, either disable a getty in /etc/ttys by changing ``on'' to ``off''
or build another kernel with more VTs as described below.
