The easiest way to have a dedicated tty line is this:
mknod /dev/printer c 22 1
chmod a=w /dev/printer
mknod /dev/tty01 c 22 1
in /etc/ttys:
2Ltty01
where L is a special entry in getty that sets up the speed and things the way
you want, and has a null login prompt. (It also helps to not write the
system banner if flag = 'L'.) Then the line is always set to the right speed,
and even though the tty01 node is not writable, the other node with the same
device number never gets touched!
