Description

In VMware VS2, QEMU, and VirtualBox:

After logging in, if the command "who" is ran, the OS hangs indefinitely unless CTRL^C is used. The serial output logs spew "(NN) [5] read: bad file given" over and over.

Fixed, /support/utmp is missing in the release image. Note however that it is not written to at this stage, so even if it does exist who and uptime return nothing and "bad boot time", respectively.
