Ah, I see; this is pretty similar to the existing server case where we sometimes add a serial console getty.
I think that's the appropriate way to tackle this here; as we can't tell on a strictly architecture level whether or not the machine is likely to have getty-on-VT or getty-on-Serialishness (Ordinary ppc desktops want the traditional VT 1 thru 6) -- no console started on cell machine https://launchpad.net/bugs/72832 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
