This will not work. Unlike VT ttys which exist continously and
perpetuously on a system ptys only exist when an application allocates
them, like for example xterm or ssh. However, for them its xterm's or
ssh's job to spawn a shall as backend.

/dev/tty1, /dev/tty2, ... make no sense in containers as there is no
virtual console.
