Ah ok. I left out an important step :) You must go into the directory /etc/event.d/ and you will see files tty1 -> tt6. Edit all the tty files that you do NOT want to be loaded on startup. Every line that has a 'start' in front of it, comment that out. Also comment out the 'respawn' line at the end of each tty file that you do NOT want to be initialized. I just tested this out leaving only tty1 and tty2 active and it worked for me. Let me know how it goes!
I'm still getting used to the upstart init system myself :) -- Virtual Consoles still load at startup https://launchpad.net/bugs/61539 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
