- WARNING: This field has a non-traditional

- for the specified process to run on. The
- contents of this field are appended to "/dev/"
- and used as-is. There is no need for this field
- to be unique, although if it isn't you may have
- strange results. If this field is left blank,

- BusyBox detects that a serial console is in use,
- then all entries containing non-empty id fields
- will _not_ be run. BusyBox init does nothing
- with utmp. We don't need no stinkin' utmp.
