I've followed the How-To instructions for upgrading to 1.3 and
everything seemed to work just fine until I went into Multi-User mode,
my machine seems to think that I have some sort of TTY device on one of
my serial ports.  I cant't get it out of a loop saying "cant't exec
getty '/usr/libexec/getty' for port /dev/ttye0: no such file or
directory".  I have built devices in the installer and even reloaded the

kernel with no success.  I only wish to run the system as I did in the
past from the existing monitor attached to the internal video of my mac
IIci.

In addition, I first had a problem with the "what Terminal" question
thats asked at the end of booting, system would not accept the usual
VT220, or anything else for that matter.  Has something been configured
in the 1.3 kernel that expects additional terminals on the serial ports,

and if so, can it be eliminated or at least controlled via some change
in the rc.conf file?, I've looked there and see some statement abt. stty

in the very beginning but was afraid to comment it out.  I know that
there is the mailing list and I have been on and off of it frequently.
If there is an answer there, could you point me in the right direction
.   Thank You  all for a really kewl system on my IIci, I
constanly amaze my frinds when I tell them that this box is vintage but
still has such power and usefullness with this O.S.
