:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 vt7
If I add another line with :1 ... :1 vt8 it hangs.
What's strange is if I add the extra line and then restart X (ctl-alt-bspc) it works - just doesn't on boot.
Looking through info on the web and the forums I should be able to do this. However, on the forums I see lines like
:0 local reserve /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 vt7
but unfortunately, most of the posts are trying to make this work on KDE or Gnome. Do they use a diffrent syntax? Nothing on the web or man pages indicates anything about reserve.
Any suggestions?

Well, I got it kind of working and did so by the doing the following. I say sort of because it worked fine before reboot. I set up the files as shown below and could to a ctl-alt-bkspc and I had three terminals. I played with this for a while and it always worked. However, when I rebooted the system hung and would not respond to the keyboard or mouse and it had a blank screen with the framebuffer image. It looks like it tried to start X and failed.
At this point I'm not sure how to make it work. I know Caldera 2.4 could do it but this just isn't working and I've exhausted all I know. If anyone has any ideas I'd be greatful!
