To avoid such problems simply do not use the system console but wait upto
the point where all boot processes/scripts have finished then be sure that
/proc is mounted and all links to the standard streams are set well by udev.
If one is not willingly to wait it would be a good idea to use, e.g.
/bin/openpty to open a virtual terminal above tty7 to spawn a real
terminal line (/dev/console, the system console is *not* a real
terminal line):
/bin/openpty -c 8 /usr/lib/YaST2/startup/YaST2.Second-Stage
please not that within /usr/lib/YaST2/startup/YaST2.Second-Stage the
terminal should be initialized and also the script should check the
existens of /dev/stderr, /dev/stdin, /dev/stdout, and /dev/fd.
