Please define opening a terminal?

change the line in /etc/inittab

# Trap CTRL-ALT-DELETE
ca::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t3 -r now

to 

# Trap CTRL-ALT-DELETE
ca::ctrlaltdel:/usr/local/bin/myrebootscript

make myrebootscript check if a terminal is open and behave acordingly.

My advise? Disable it completely by hashing the line out. This is a disaster waiting
to happen.

Run "init q" to reload init defaults after changing the file.
