[ts-7000] Re: geting user input from console during tsinit script

OK... I understand what's going on... the tsinit script is being run in the 
background (check-usb-update, which invokes tsinit is run with & tail at the 
top of the linuxrc script).

So, can anyone think of a clever way to get check-usb-update to make tsinit the 
foreground process when it starts it?

I suppose I could just run check-usb-update late in the linuxrc script w/o 
running in the background, but when the usb drive isn't present, I don't really 
want the startup process to hang for the full time it takes to find the usb 
drive, etc...)

Ideally I'd just like to force all console input to go to tsinit by some clever 
redirection scheme, or by moving the script to the foreground...
