The line for ttyd0 in /etc/ttys for set to: ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200" pcvt50w on secure All is working fine, except when I drop to single-user mode. At that point the terminal type ($TERM) gets switched to cons25 (which seriously messes with 'more' and 'mergemaster'). Is there any way I can keep single-user mode from redefining the terminal type (i.e., where is the setting)?
