 Greetings,
 
 	I must overlook something here.
 
 	I have just noticed that my 2.1R system reports that
 
 	~
 	getty: /dev/ttyv0: Device not configured
 	getty: /dev/ttyv2: Device not configured
 	getty: /dev/ttyv1: Device not configured
 
 
 	But dmesg indicates the presence of
 
 	sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa
 	sio0: type 16550A
 	sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa
 	sio1: type 16550A
 	sio2 at 0x3e8-0x3ef irq 5 on isa
 	sio2: type 16550A
 	sio3 not found at 0x2e8
 
 
 	/etc/ttys has :
 
 	ttyv0   "/usr/libexec/getty Pc"         cons25  on  secure
 	ttyv1   "/usr/libexec/getty Pc"         cons25  on secure
 	ttyv2   "/usr/libexec/getty Pc"         cons25  on secure
 
 
 	But tip finds the devices OK.
 
 	What did I miss here ?
 
 	Thank you for your help.
 
 	Francis
