The short version is, the machine will not enter multi-user mode after
we followed the instructions or directions within /usr/src/UPDATING . the
SECTION entitled:
To upgrade in-place from 4.x-stable to 5.x
-----------------------------------------------------
While we are able to enter single-user mode with no apparent issues, attempting
to enter multi-user mode yields the following:
<date> init can't exec getty '/usr/libexec/getty' for port /dev/ttyv0:
The above line takes place for all the ttyv's listed in /etc/ttys. We've
checked the entries in /etc/ttys as-well-as checked to be sure
/usr/libexec/getty was in fact in its proper place with correct permissions.
Because this upgrade went sideways we are only soliciting help to reboot into
multi-user mode to retrieve the data which our level.0/9 dump(s) failed to get
.thereafter we'll do a fresh install and return this machine to service.
What can we do at this point to accomplish our goal of booting in to multi-user
mode?
