     CONSOLE(M)		      XENIX System V		    CONSOLE(M)

     Name
	  console - System console device.

     Description
	  The file /dev/console is the device used by the system
	  administrator for system maintenance (single-user)
	  operations.  It is the tty to which the first default shell
	  is attached.

	  The system console device can be either a terminal (a serial
	  adapter device, tty1a) or a sytem keyboard display adapter
	  monitor (tty01).

	  Many programs, such as the XENIX kernel, redirect error
	  messages to /dev/console.  Initially /dev/console is linked
	  to /dev/systty.

     Files
	  /dev/console

     See Also
	  boot(HW), systty(M), tty(M)

     Notes
	  /dev/console should not be enabled, users should log in
	  using the display adapter (tty01) or the serial adapter
	  device (tty1a).
