From SOFTICE

BenjaminGeiger 18:29, 1 Jun 2006 (EDT): I managed to break the default UML disk image. On the advice of Jeff Dike (yes, that Jeff Dike) I changed "console" to "tty1" in /etc/inittab, and now the system won't boot. I don't have sufficient privileges to change it back under loopback (it's owned by root, which means I'd have to be root to fix it).

On a related note, there's a problem with the Debian configuration; SIGINT can't be sent to processes via the console.

UPDATE: Got it fixed. While I don't have root on the softice server, I do have root on the UML instance and a backup copy of the disk image. I passed the working image as ubd0, the broken one as ubd1, then mounted /dev/ubd1 into the filesystem.
