If it worked fine in another machine, as the console device, it will need to be configured to BE the second device on your new machine. Make sure the hardware responds at 177402. That block of switches should read on-on-on-off on the primary board. It should read on-on-off-off on the second board. When you go to boot the Ultrix, it should list an entry for qd1 at the proper address, if not, the board is either not working or configured incorrectly. Next, ensure it is defined in your config file (you've done that) and build a new kernel. After booting this new kernel, you'll have to edit the /etc/ttys file to include a line at the bottom of the file which looks something like the line already there: :0 "/usr/bin/login -P /usr/bin/Xprompter -C /usr/bin/dxsession -e" none on secure window="/usr/bin/Xqdsg -su" add :1 "/usr/bin/login -P /usr/bin/Xprompter -C /usr/bin/dxsession -e" none on secure window="/usr/bin/Xqdsg -su" now, doing a kill -HUP 1 should cause init to get that terminal going, if not, try rebooting.
