Just something I found on the internet Brian. Thanks for the hint Andrei!
It seems you need to edit inittab, comment out #1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty
38400 tty1 and add 1:2345:respawn:/bin/login -f username tty1 </dev/tty1
>/dev/tty1 2>&1
sudo nano /etc/inittab
#1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1
1:2345:respawn:/bin/login -f username tty1 </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2>&1
Works for me now I just have to figure out how to autostart this everytime.
