Default weird behavior when "cons" entry is near the end of /etc/inittab

Hello All,

I'm running into some very strange and very hard to reproduce issue
with mksysb installs. When "cons" entry is towards the end of the
inittab (after the run levels, etc.), I get all sorts of funky
problems, specifically all my "sys0" settings are the default (i.e.
extremley low value for maxuproc, etc.). When I change these, the
settings get changed back to these low default values. When I move
"cons" up in the inittab, the changes survive reboots. When you move
"cons" back down in the file, the issue is not reproducible... This has
happened to me on multiple installations, using different AIX 5.3
mksysb's......

Any thoughts on what's cause "cons" to mess up the ODM?

-Chris
