I found out what was missing in my debian template script. My config file
asked for 6 tty's while probably only 2 got constructed (seems to be
default by Squeeze), so I added:

    # squeeze only has /dev/tty and /dev/tty0 by default,
    # therefore creating missing device nodes for tty1-4.
    for tty in $(seq 1 4); do
        if [ ! -e $rootfs/dev/tty$tty ]; then
            mknod $rootfs/dev/tty$tty c 4 $tty
        fi
    done

    # configure the inittab
    cat <<EOF > $rootfs/etc/inittab
id:3:initdefault:
si::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS
l0:0:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 0

c5:12345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5 linux
c6:12345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6 linux
 EOF

That seemed to do the trick!

Thanks,

Glenn
