I have discovered a minor bug involving getty on the 3b1. I am running
3.51, though for all I know it may apply to other releases and other
UNIX(TM) based systems as well.
The /etc/gettydefs file as distributed has an entry called "19200." So
I thought that all I had to do to run a terminal on tty000 at 19200 baud
was use this entry. Wrong. Getty does not understand the B19200 in
gettydefs, and sets the baud rate to zero. The fix is simple - just
change both occurrences of B19200 in /etc/gettydefs to EXTA and all is well.
