# /etc/inittab init(8) configuration for BusyBox
#

#
#
# Note, BusyBox init doesn't support runlevels. The runlevels field is
# completely ignored by BusyBox init. If you want runlevels, use sysvinit.
#
#
# Format for each entry: <id>:<runlevels>:<action>:<process>
#
# <id>: WARNING: This field has a non-traditional meaning for BusyBox init!
#
# The id field is used by BusyBox init to specify the controlling tty for
# the specified process to run on. The contents of this field are
# appended to "/dev/" and used as-is. There is no need for this field to
# be unique, although if it isn't you may have strange results. If this
# field is left blank, it is completely ignored. Also note that if
# BusyBox detects that a serial console is in use, then all entries
# containing non-empty id fields will _not_ be run. BusyBox init does
# nothing with utmp. We don't need no stinkin' utmp.
#
# <runlevels>: The runlevels field is completely ignored.
#
# <action>: Valid actions include: sysinit, respawn, askfirst, wait, and once.
#
# Note: askfirst acts just like respawn, but before running the specified
# process it displays the line "Please press Enter to activate this
# console." and then waits for the user to press enter before starting
# the specified process.
#
# Note: unrecognised actions (like initdefault) will cause init to emit
# an error message, and then go along with its business.
#
# <process>: Specifies the process to be executed and it's command line.
#
# Note: BusyBox init works just fine without an inittab. If no inittab
# is found, it has the following default behavior:
# ::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS
# ::askfirst:/bin/sh
# if it detects that /dev/console is _not_ a serial console, it will also run:
# tty2::askfirst:/bin/sh
#
# Boot-time system configuration/initialization script.
# This is run first except when booting in single-user mode.
#
::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS
# /bin/sh invocations on selected ttys
#
# Start an "askfirst" shell on the console (whatever that may be)
::askfirst:/bin/sh
# Start an "askfirst" shell on /dev/tty2
tty2::askfirst:/bin/sh
# /sbin/getty invocations for selected ttys
#
tty4::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4
tty5::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5
# Example of how to put a getty on a serial line (for a terminal)
#
#ttyS0::respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 9600 vt100
#ttyS1::respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS1 9600 vt100
#
# Example how to put a getty on a modem line.
#ttyS2::respawn:/sbin/getty -x0 -s 57600 ttyS2
# Not currently supported, but may be sometime in the future...
#::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/reboot
