Re: serial terminals
1. Edit /etc/inittab
There is probably some commented lines not unlike this one:
# Example how to put a getty on a serial line (for a terminal)
#
T0:3:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 38400 vt320
3 is the initlevel (it will only be activated in initlevel 3)
-L is for local (no carrier detect) serial terminals
ttyS0 is the port to use
38400 the speed
vt320 the termcap to use
See man getty, man init
2. reload inittab
init Q
and/or telinit 3 or whatever initlevel you did choose to use in inittab.
