Subject: 2.1.6-RELEASE DES Problem

The DES package seems to be missing /sbin/init and maybe other things as
well (the same problem also existed under 2.1.5-RELEASE).  If you install
DES, set everything in /etc/ttys to insecure then you cannot login as root
when booting up in single user mode.  Doing a make and make install on
/sbin/init solved the problem under 2.1.5-RELEASE.  I assume it will under
2.1.6-RELEASE but haven't downloaded the sources yet.
