Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: upstart
I upgraded my machine to feisty and caused loss of TTYs, it mangled the
tty1-tty6 files
The last line now reads
"/sbin/getty 38400 tty2exec /sbin/getty 38400 tty2" (same for each
different tty)
Which obviously is wrong, I suspect one of the upgrade scripts may have
caused this
Now as a point I cannot remember if this machine was upgraded from
dapper, or from edgy, I suspect it may have been dapper which could be
the root of the problem, I realise that generally upgrading between
releases is not supported but since 6.06 is LTS this may cause a bug
when the next LTS comes out so could probably be fixed.
This is also really bad because you lose the TTY in recovery mode as
well.
