Glibc 2.1 has a problem with having the /dev/ptmx device present and
devpts not being mounted. If /dev/ptmx is presend then create /dev/pts
and mount devpts there or it wont work right.
Do you have a non Ultra system to test this on? My ultra works fine,
but my LX doesn't reboot (as reported by some one else aswell).
