Re: Disapearing /dev/tty0's



Did you by any chance change hard drive controlers or other cards
recently.  When I tried to install a SCSI card, the same sort of thing
happened.  After trying to figure out what was up and pulling the SCSI
card, the problem went away on about the third hard shutdown/reboot.
Other idea is your serial card my be going, you might want to try swapping
to another if you have a spare.
