I assume your
/etc/inittabis spawning a getty on tty0?Tom: Does it ? If not, then that's why it's failing.
Tom, I just saw you already answered this.
So please forget about my mail.Greetings,

No problem :-) Actually, my only remaining question is why disabling the tty[x] entries in inittab would be a default behavior; I had changed it with 0.9 and the install of 0.91 changed it back. Weird.
Anyway, that might be a good thing to change for a 1.0 release - assuming the console will be serial could be bad...
Installer should auto detect whether it is on a serial on graphical console, and set up inittab appropriately. Sounds like it got confused in your case. Not aware of anyone else having that problem.
