Btw: After netbooting pc this way, starting getty on serial console
doesn't work by editing /ect/ttys and using 'kill -HUP 1'; guess init
has a reference to /etc/ttys file on NFS mount from CD, not for file
on MFS, which is edited. Just start getty on command line.
I just had a look, init does indeed close and reopen the file (via libc ttyent functions).  So this must be some kernel issue because the / overlay gets mounted after init is run.  strange that init can't access the new mount then.  Matt, is this intended?

cheers
