I mean - this "log to vc #5" behavior seems to be arbitrary. Why vc #5 and not #6? Why vc and not serial line? and so on. You just got bitten by this arbitrariness. Good moment to think what can be a better behavior. Would you like init to just log to console - say, fd #2 which is passed to init by the kernel? -- vda _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list busybox@busybox.net http://busybox.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/busybox
