Just to be sure I understand: does that mean that the startup messages
will be displayed on the braille terminal as soon as brltty gets the
device? Then I could start brltty through /etc/inittab, and in rc.S1,
in case brltty is found in the command line, do a "sleep 5" just
after the udev daemon has been started, to make sure the terminal
displays all following output.
