Dear Maintainer,

I do not need a whole bunch of tty's so I disabled all but one in runlevel 5
and enabled only 3 in my text-only runlevels 3 and 2 (excerpt from
/etc/inittab):

  # /sbin/getty invocations for the runlevels.
  #
  # The "id" field MUST be the same as the last
  # characters of the device (after "tty").
  #
  # Format:
  #  <id>:<runlevels>:<action>:<process>
  #
  # Note that on most Debian systems tty7 is used by the X Window System,
  # so if you want to add more getty's go ahead but skip tty7 if you run X.
  #
  1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1
  2:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2
  3:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty3
  #4:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4
  #5:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5
  #6:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6

But when I use systemd and are e.g in runlevel 5 I can go to tty2, 3, ... and
will get tty's. Even when I am in runlevel 3, used e.g. 3 tty's and then
switch to runlevel 5, there are still 3 tty's open and not only just one tty,
tty1 as it is described by /etc/inittab.


With best regards,
Julian Wollrath
