However, when I boot my machine, I get the following error can't exec getty '/usr/libexec/getty' for port /dev/ttyv0 The boot cycle just hangs and it echo back that error every 30 seconds or so. I've definitely done a cd /dev && /bin/sh MAKEDEV all and all the devices are there properly. I can boot into single user mode and run "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" and get a console. This goes on even if I toy with the different parameters in /etc/ttys I can't seem to find a fix, and it's a bit critical. If you can please help I would appreciate it very much!! Thank you.
