more consoles
Hi! Is it possible to add more console logins in Solaris 10 x86 like it is in Linux and FreeBSD? The Problem is, when i make some configuration in the console, kdmconfig for example, and something hangs, i cannot switch to another console to kill the process. What i want is to switch with Alt-F2 Alt-F3 ... to other ttys. In Linux there is the /etc/tty (X on Alt F7)
How can i configure this in Solaris?
Thanks.
