INIT(8) UNIX System Manager's Manual INIT(8)
NAME
init - process control initialization
...
init starts a process on the line). If a line is commented out or delet-
ed from ttys, init will not do anything at all to that line. However,
it will complain that the relationship between lines in the ttys file and
records in the utmp file is out of sync, so this practice is not recom-
mended.
