starting mgetty

[peter@easthope.ca]

Traditionally, mgetty was started with a line such as this in /etc/inittab.
T0:23:respawn:/sbin/mgetty ttyS1

Not working in wheezy and this seems relevant.

Also
root@dalton:~# dpkg -l | grep systemd
ii  libsystemd-login0:i386               44-11+deb7u4                           i386         systemd login utility library

But
root@dalton:~# ls /bin/systemd
ls: cannot access /bin/systemd: No such file or directory

The mgetty documents don't help.  How should mgetty be started 
automatically these days?

        Thanks,              ... Peter E.
