Hi

I have a problem. In my linux 0.99pl12 it seems to be able only to
install up to three ttyS* ports in inittab via getty.
Any other then ttyS0 - ttyS2 that I have tried like ttyS3 did not
apear under ps -aux after rebooting.
Do any one know to handle this problem cause I need more of these
ports.
An other thig is, I have installed a port with /bin/getty 9600 ttyS3
and then a login apeart on my kermit-terminal, but I was not able
to answer this login.

Please help.

Bye, bye
