I have the following file /usr/local/etc/rc.d/kdm.sh (permissions 0700):
--= Begin /usr/local/etc/rc.d/kdm.sh =--
#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in
[Ss][Tt][Aa][Rr][Tt])
/usr/local/bin/kdm & && echo -n " kdm"
;;
esac
--= End =--
No problems at all. I first edited /etc/ttys, but that caused problems
similar to yours. (I couldn't even switch back to a normal console to have
root access!)
With kind regards, Rogier Steehouder
