Update:

I modified the top line to contain :
 ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc"   cons25  on  secure
and
at the very end added one with
 ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty autologin"   cons25  on  secure

and sadlyI get

Aug 8 12:07:58 grullahighschool init:  getty repeating too quickly on
port /dev/ttyv0, sleeping 30 secs

Then I get login prompt :(  again.  What could be going wrong ?

Regards,

Antonio
