[nos-bbs] Ubuntu 10.04 autoboot JNOS & respawn

[Bob Tenty]

The error is in "startnos".


In your "startnos" file you have:

exec /jnos/jnos -d/jnos -v </dev/tty5>/dev/tty5 2>&1

The error is "jnos -d/jnos -v"


You should use:


exec /jnos/jnos -d  -v </dev/tty5>/dev/tty5 2>&1

-----

tty5.conf itself is OK
