[nos-bbs] Ubuntu 10.04 autoboot JNOS & respawn

[Wm Lewis]

Bob:
 
I tried updating as you said. Still no Joy.  
 
Do I need to be using some sort of SUDO command in any of this for it to work on boot?
 
Here are my updated files. 
 
"startnos" file (in /jnos directory
==============================================
cd /jnos
rm -f /jnos/spool/mqueue/*.lck 2> /dev/null
rm -f /jnos/spool/mail/*.lck 2> /dev/null
export TZ=PST8PDT
exec /jnos/jnos -d/jnos -v </dev/tty5>/dev/tty5 2>&1 
==============================================
 
and the "tty5.conf" file
 
==============================================
# tty5 - getty
#
# This service maintains a getty on tty5 from the point the system is
# started until it is shut down again.
 
start on runlevel [23]
stop on runlevel [!23]
 
respawn
exec /jnos/startnos
==============================================
 
What am I missing ?

Bill:

To start it in  virtual tty5 add </dev/tty5>/dev/tty5 2>&1 to the "exec"
line in your startnos file.

like:

exec ./jnos  -g2 -w7+4 -d  </dev/tty5>/dev/tty5 2>&1 


export TERM=linux is not necessary


Don't use tty5 (or whatever console not in use) to your tty5.conf file if you use 
</dev/tty5>/dev/tty5 2>&1 , etc  in your startnos file.




You can stop and start tty5 with the commands:

initctl stop tty5
initctl start tty5
