I uncommented the pcvt option in the kernel config and that kernel promptly reboots with a page fault everytime. This is from current srcs (today). If I just use sco instead of vto all is well. So has anyone successfully used this?

pcvt is missing in cdevsw[] (in /sys/i386/i386/conf.c).

I've got a partial patch yesterday, but since i nuked my src tree today on my way to CVS-current, i've lost this one. :-/

Basically, you need to re#define all the scXXXX entries to pcXXXX in case NSC == 0 && NVT > 0.

Note that the resulting kernel still experienced the ``can login in the console VT only once'' symptom. I'm working on this, but don't have anything applicable yet.
