The current AI design is ambiguous when it comes
to whether console-login should run during an
automated install.

Currently, console-login does run and the auto-installer
service runs in the background. Should this be changed
and what should it be changed to?

One of the things that the auto-installer service does
is to run the automated install program (/usr/bin/auto-install).
Once the install finishes, a message saying that the install
completed is sent to stderr informing the user of the
outcome of the install. Since the installer is run from
an smf service, the user never sees these messages or
any progress report of the install for that matter.

This is clearly very user unfriendly.

Would it be better to disable console-login entirely 
and have the install progress report, etc go to the console
instead?
