Umm, the 'id' is required by init - its used to locate and maintain the
entries in the utmp file. From the inittab man page:
id:runlevels:action:process
id is a unique sequence of 1-4 characters which iden�
tifies an entry in inittab (for versions of
sysvinit compiled with libraries < 5.2.18 or a.out
libraries the limit is 2 characters).
Note: For gettys or other login processes, the id
field should be the tty suffix of the corresponding
tty, e.g. 1 for tty1. Otherwise, the login
accounting might not work correctly.
Note the limit of 4 characters however.
