 I don't think that patch to init will work (it would have to be able
 to distinguish between problems starting up getty and a session
 exiting with an error later on, at a minimum) and anyway ISTM that the
 right way to do this is to have the rc(8) system abort if critical
 filesystems fail to mount.
