I'm running Mandrake 9.0 and noticed the same thing.

Where is inittab located?

I ran a "find in*" from / and only found initrd. Even ran it as su.

In the last line of: "inittab" do you have: "respawn" or "once".

You probably have: "respawn" and I suggest that you try changing it to 
"once" and see it that fixes it.

Otherwise, you probably have a problem in your startup scripts.

What does the last line in: "inittab" call? -- a script??
