	Do you do anything to getty or anything else in /etc so
	that getty isn't continually trying to spawn a tty for
	the console?

	Seems to me that I got complaints trying to boot without
	a keyboard once...  

	It'd be nice if I could move my othre CRT//keyboard away
	and boot without things blowing up (!)
