Greetings from Los Angeles.

...It change kernel security level from 0 to 1 then that error comes:
...its prompt to sceen following:

..."init: can't exec getty 'usr/libexec/getty' for port /dev/tty00:
...permission denied"

...I found Your hint from Netbsd FAQ:s and change that /etc/ttys how You
...tell to change but it wont help. Then I try to mount that  
/dev/tty00 to
.../usr/libexec/getty but it said "need bolck device" and wont work...

I have the same problem with my Quadra 630 installing 1.3.2.  Single user
mode was fine.  Can't get past getty in multi user mode.

Another problem.  When I boot back into single user mode using the  
booter,
permission is read only, so I can't reset rc.conf.  I had to rm rc.conf
from the mini-shell then reinstall /etc.

What's the solution to the getty problem????

As always,
