Yes, and no. Yes, all my users including root were able to login. No, I didn't edit my inittab the way you described, since you're using getty, and I'm using agetty, and you were also missing the term type (linux) at the end of your line. > Hmm...Do you have an > /etc/ttytype file? If so, what's the syntax? It seems I am in need of > one. Nope, no /etc/ttytype on my system. Why don't you switch to agetty, write your lines in inittab the way the one I showed is written, and I'll bet all your login problems will magically go away?
