Hello, could someone please tell me how to configure /dev/tty1. Currently I have the major and minor device numbers as 5 and 1. I have the two lines 100 and 0d1 in /etc/ttys. When I try to use tty1 for example: echo atdt > /dev/tty1 my prompt dissapears and I have to reboot to get out of it. When I try running kermit, I set line to /dev/tty1 and I then get the respose: Warning, read access to lock directory denied and then after setting the speed, when I connect, I loose the prompt and have to reboot again. Is there somthing that I am missing? By the way, this is running ver 1.3 PC minix on a ps/2 model 30. See you Wally Strzelec <x110ws@tamunix.tamu.edu>

It creates LOCK.xxx files there. Andy Tanenbaum (ast@cs.vu.nl)
