It sounds like you are still starting using /etc/inittab runlevel
1. The suggestion to use /bin/sh instead of /sbin/mingetty is intended
to work with inittab runlevel 3 (normal configuration). You are better
off using inittab init level 3, the /bin/sh change, and leaving the
"1:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 1" unchanged. This allows you to go to single
user mode, if necessary, without all the extra stuff that runlevel 3
bring along in case you have to recover a system. Besides, it is fewer
changes and cleaner.
