You should look at the ttydefaults.h file (I think) which is what is used to compile
in the default values into programs (kernel ?) etc.

You want to get rid of ISTRIP and PARENB and replace CS7 with CS8.

Hang on... I'll just get the portable running...

Here we are:

sys/ttydefaults.h

find the line that begins #define TTYDEF_IFLAG and wonder arounf that and the next
4 lines, and do what it says above...

Should work after recompiling getty/init/sh ? etc.

Anyone with a more definative answer please comment,
