In its default configuration, um Linux connects its /dev/console to the
host's fd:0,fd:1. Other tty devices (/dev/tty*) are accessible on
various host devices that the user must connect to explicitly. By
running getty on /dev/console by default,
$ ./linux ubd0=arch-rootfs
will display a prompt immediately on the same terminal, along with the
boot messages. This is much more user-friendly, than making the user
explicitly connect to the right device using
$ screen /dev/pts/8
to get a login prompt.
