If you do not do this you will not be able to login as root on the console. The first person to email the list asking why they can't login as root on the console has to go stand in the corner with a pointy hat on. Jake ----- Forwarded message from Jake Burkholder ----- jake 2003/01/26 20:42:17 PST Modified files: etc/etc.sparc64 ttys sys/dev/ofw ofw_console.c Log: Change ofwcons to use the output-device property from the firmware for the name of the device that it creates. Update /etc/ttys accordingly. An alias is created for the old name so that old /etc/ttys will continue to work, but due to aliases being implemented as symlinks in devfs you cannot login as root when using the alias device.
