Moin!
I have tested settings for my NIC and lost the network conection to my server. So, I would login me directly on the server and correct my settings - but there was no login promt after boot, only the boot messages. And all virtual consoles didn't work.
(I had to boot from a OS from a USB stick to reanable the network.)
A check over ssh confirmed: no tty is running.
The getty settings in inittab looks correct to me:
Code
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1
2:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2
3:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty3
4:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4
5:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5
6:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6
Starting getty manually is working.
Code
root@server:~# getty 38400 tty2 &
[1] 8137
root@server:~# ps -e | grep tty
8137 pts/0 00:00:00 getty
I never had this problem before. And Google mostly find Xserver related stuff.
OMV 0.5.44
Linux 3.2.0-0.bpo.4-amd64
GUI and ssh working.
No other problems noticed.
So, what can I do?
Why do the tty's not start?
