 |

Hi guys. Recently I migrated my linode to another host via the web interface. After booting and logging into lish however I only see the following on my linode.
| Code: | Gentoo Linux; http://www.gentoo.org/

Note that there's no login prompt for the linode at the bottom which was previously there I'm sure. What am I doing wrong? Any ideas? Let me know if I should post any config files up here. Many thanks for your help. |

Hi. Thanks for your help but I still have this problem.
My /etc/inittab:
| Code: |
# Default runlevel.
id:3:initdefault:
# System initialization, mount local filesystems, etc.
si::sysinit:/sbin/rc sysinit
# Further system initialization, brings up the boot runlevel.
rc::bootwait:/sbin/rc boot
l0:0:wait:/sbin/rc shutdown
l1:S1:wait:/sbin/rc single
l2:2:wait:/sbin/rc nonetwork
l3:3:wait:/sbin/rc default
l4:4:wait:/sbin/rc default
l5:5:wait:/sbin/rc default
l6:6:wait:/sbin/rc reboot

I tried adding the following line to /etc/inittab:
| Code: | | c0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 vc/0 linux |
but it resulted in the following lish message:
| Code: | | INIT: Id "c0" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes |
So I commented it out. Any other ideas? |

This is my /etc/inittab on my Linode 100 (I highlighted the important line below):

So there might be some inconsistencies and/or outdated information in the LinodeWiki article on GentooSetup.
Come to think of it, after a certain Gentoo kernel and/or system profile (I don't remember which), you need to use tty0 instead of vc/0. |
