I'm not sure, I'd check the entries in
/etc/securetty
Each entry should have a corresponding /dev entry. For example:
------------ /etc/securetty --------------------
tty1
tty2
tty3
tty4
tty5
tty6
tty7
tty8
--------------------------------------------------------
# ls -la /dev/tty1
crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 1 Nov 9 13:26 /dev/tty1
--------------------------------------------------------
Hope that helps =)
