Sorry for the late reply. Indeed, it's owing to changes brought in by upstart. Go to /etc/event.d and you will find files called tty1, tty2, ..., tty6. Open the file corresponding to the tty you don't want to start and comment out a line which looks like - start on runlevel-2 start on runlevel-3 I am assuming you don't want those tty's on runlevel 2 & 3. I think that should work.
