HI!
you have to allow the tty<X> -access for the runlevels you are working in.
the stuff can be found in /etc/inittab (quoted below).
-->
# Format:
# <id>:<runlevels>:<action>:<process>
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1
2:234:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2
3:234:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty3
4:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4
