Yan:  I've done it both ways.  I was under the impression, also, that 
one could use a serial console as both a console and a tty -- I know 
this to be true from an embedded system that I have, I'm attempting to 
mimic this on a different embedded system.  It really has nothing to do 
with the getty, removing the line from the inittab does nothing for me.
