Hi all. i just installed Slackware-9.1. After finding out that dhclient
was broken, I used dhcpcd and got an IP from the router over here.
However, I noticed that only 5 ttys were enabled, so I edited inittab
just like I did on my previous Debian system to add 6 more consoles. The
syntax in inittab is: console:1235:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 <tty>.
Example: c6:1235:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6
And I did this for all 12 ttys. Granted, I got the 12
consoles...However, I can't login as root in consoles 6-12, nor can I
login as user (the account being igueths). All the other accounts I
created could login just fine. Could my problem be something with the
UID's not being set propperly? Also, init is periodically respawning
process when it shouldn't be i.e., I get messages about certain consoles
respawning too fast. Anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? Quite
honestly, I've never seen this type of behavior before on a pretty much
newly installed system. Thanks!

Failure is not an option, it comes bundled with your Microsoft product.
