Do you mean devices '/dev/tty0' .. '/dev/tty63' ? (Debian defaults)
Or do you want to use more of them in text mode ?
then add them to '/etc/inittab' (excluding tty7 used by X).
With '/etc/inittab' supplemented, e.g.:
8:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty8
9:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty9
10:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty10
11:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty11
12:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty12
...
24:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty24
(after relogin),
access the new available text screens:
<Alt-F1> .. <Alt-F12>, <AltGr-F1> .. <AltGr-F12>
(tty1) (tty12) (tty13) (tty24)
