Title:
Getty: Provide text for users who accidentally hit ctrl+alt+f1 to
guide them to hit ctrl+alt+f7
Status in One Hundred Papercuts:

Status in “base-files” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
If you hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 through F6 to bring up a virtual terminal you
currently see text along the lines of:
Ubuntu 11.10 hostname tty1
hostname login:
Users who accidentally reach this screen are left confused and often assume
they broke something and simply restart with the power button. We should
provide text that, in order of priority:
* Directs a user to press ctrl+alt+f7 if they don't know what to do
* Briefly explains what the virtual terminals are and why they're there
* Provides the relevant system information (do we even need Ubuntu version?)
