 Raphael and Ingo, if you get a chance, can you confirm I didn't screw
 this up? Rainer, I think this fixes your bug too (#57464). Guy, if you
 don't object by ~22:00 Tuesday, April 4th (CDT), I'm going to go ahead
 and upload it to Incoming.

I've installed it. Lets see how it behaves. More to come tommorow.

Ist it compiled for only one certain receiver type + port? Or were you able
to make it configurable?

Re: why not mingetty??

Hallo erstmal!
Hi!

Hamish Moffatt ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
 Is agetty used much for serial? I always use mgetty here, although usually
 because I want something more exotic like AutoPPP or fax reception.

I use it for a null-modem link to another machine. In combination with
putting lilo on the same link (and maybe with 2.1.x's serial console
feature) this is a REALLY nice way to save a monitor, graphics card,
keyboard and to keep a way to connect to the box if the network is hosed.

I don't like the idea to switch to a getty without serial support. Maybe
we'll once enhance our setup to run over a serial line (as it's possible
with FreeBSD).


Regards
 Rainer

 But all worked fine.

This occurs, because 'head' simply closes it's input pipe. 
It can be suppressed by putting find in a subshell, which's stderr /dev/null.
This workaoround is also included in my patch in bugreport #21000 - I hope
it becomes applied :-)
