The following or something derived from it might include your salvation: #!/bin/sh cd /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants cp -a ../../../../lib/systemd/system/[email protected] ../../../../lib/systemd/system/[email protected] sed -i 's/TTYVTDisallocate=yes/TTYVTDisallocate=no/' ../../../../lib/systemd/system/[email protected] ln -sf ../../../../lib/systemd/system/[email protected] ./[email protected] systemctl start [email protected] ln -sf ../../../../lib/systemd/system/[email protected] ./[email protected] systemctl start [email protected] ln -sf ../../../../lib/systemd/system/[email protected] ./[email protected] systemctl start [email protected] ln -sf ../../../../lib/systemd/system/[email protected] ./[email protected] systemctl start [email protected] ln -sf ../../../../lib/systemd/system/[email protected] ./[email protected] systemctl start [email protected] ln -sf ../../../../lib/systemd/system/[email protected] ./[email protected] systemctl start [email protected] I don't recall the whys involved, only what to do with a new installation.
