Cannot open /etc/inittab

If the system fails to enter multiuser mode when you press <Ctrl>D, or this message is displayed at boot time, the /etc/inittab file is missing:

   INIT: Cannot open /etc/inittab errno: 2

   INIT: SINGLE USER MODE

To restore inittab, you must recreate the kernel environment:

1. Enter the root password to go into system maintenance mode.

2. Enter these commands:
   
   cd /etc/conf/cf.d
   touch /etc/.new_unix
   ../bin/idmkenv

3. When you see these messages:

      The kernel environment includes device node files and /etc/inittab.
      The new kernel may require changes to /etc/inittab or device nodes.
   
      Do you want the kernel environment rebuilt? (y/n)
   

   Enter ``y'' and press <Enter>. This message is displayed:

      The kernel has been successfully linked and installed.
      	To activate it, reboot your system.
   
      Setting up kernel environment
   

4. Enter the command:
   
   cat /etc/inittab

   If you see a message that the system cannot open the file, enter this command:
   
   ln -s /var/opt/K/SCO/Unix/*/etc/inittab /etc/inittab

   This restores the symbolic link to the inittab file in the UNIX system software storage object.

5. Enter the command:
   
   exit

6. You see the message:

      ENTER RUN LEVEL (0-6,s or S):
   

   Enter 2 and the system will continue into multiuser mode.
