[Buildroot] Mgetty in Buildroot config?

[Damien Borie]

Hello everybody!

I have a little problem : I'm trying to install mgetty in my 
distribution, because I must use a serial modem. But I don't find mgetty 
option in config file and in buildroot menuconfig. I'm a bit surprises 
because I thought it was a common software. So I wonder if I'm just 
blind not to find it, or if mgetty isn't include in Buildroot for now. 
In this case, is there any patch to add it, or must I compile it myself ?
I see in the mailing list archive that some thread talk about mgetty, so 
I concluded that it's possible to add it...

Thanks!

Hi Damien,

I think busybox provides a leightweight getty applet. Maybe it is 
sufficient for your needs.
