Re: fix to init (sri-unix.214)
       There is no reason for the suggested code change to init.c.  The
file kernel/src/cmd/getty.c already includes code (beginning at line 139)
to ensure that the line discipline is reset.
       However, the code in getty.c assumes that the old line discipline
is 0 instead of using the defined constant OTTYDISC from sys/ioctl.h.
This should be changed:

       diff kernel/src/cmd/getty.c.old kernel/src/cmd/getty.c
       142c142
               ldisc = OTTYDISC;


This change should be applied to all tapes written before 12/15/81.

                       Carl
