+
+ngetty is a daemon that starts login sessions on virtual console terminals,
+on demand. It is a good replacement for all those getty processes started
+from init that, most of the time, are only taking up memory.
+When compiled statically with dietlibc, the ngetty binary size is only
+about 2k and uses considerably less memory than a getty.
+
+I wrote ngetty inspired by logind. Many thanks Andre!
+logind source: http://anbadeol.googlepages.com/logind.html
+
+
+Quick install:
+0. read the ngetty.8 manual page
+1. browse lib.h (check if the LOGIN path is correct!)
+2. edit Makefile to taste
+3. build:
+ make
+ If dietlibc is available:
+ make CC='diet -Os gcc -W'
+ To build dietlibc try:
+ make dietbuild
+4. install:
+ make install
+5. if you want to some additional programs do:
+ make install_other
+6. see init.d/ngetty, /etc/ngetty/Conf, /etc/ngetty/sample.Conf.
