Re: [BusyBox] Problems with getty not spawning correctly (more)






Just to be clear, does this patch make it so 
1) CTRL-C works from /dev/console
    or 
2) fix it so we can respawn on ttySx?

Thanks for everyone's help.

Find attached tty_io.c, to put in <your kernel tree>/drivers/char. 
WARNING: this is a 2.6.4 source, so if, as I guess, you have another 
version, 
you should import the patch in your own version with some merge tool.. 
I made the patch conditional to CONFIG_ARCH_CHAMELOT and 
CONFIG_ARCH_BAGHEERA 
which are the two arch I support. 
Go to lines 1383-1390 and add your own platform - My ego just ask you to 
let my tag..

I'm interested in that patch.  I'm using User Mode Linux with /dev/console 

going to the stdin and stdout of the UML process, and it works fine except 

for no ctrl-c.    (I have to kill it from another terminal when 
necessary.)
