[Zeffie-Developers] Console on RAQ550

Hi

I'm running RAQ550 software on a RAQ3.

The official entry in /etc/inittab for the console didn't provide a 
login on the
console attached to the console port.

1:12345:respawn:/sbin/consoled /sbin/getty ttyS0 115200

strace showed that getty was hung opening the device (if my memory's 
correct).

Changing the inittab entry to either of the following gets me a login, 
but without job control.
(bash: no job control in this shell)

1:12345:respawn:/sbin/consoled /sbin/getty console 115200
1:12345:respawn:/sbin/consoled /sbin/mgetty -s 115200 -r -b console

The effects of this include non-functioning <CTRL>-C even though
stty -a shows  "intr = ^C"

csh -i gives

"Warning:No access to tty(Inappropriate ioctl for device)"

The kernel version is "2.4.19C7_III #1 Tue Nov 30 11:27:23 PST 2004 i586"

Does anyone know of a fix for this?

Thanks
