We cannot push this patch to Linus or -stable. The problem is that will break other things. E.g. login on non-tty0 terminals will break if the distro uses util-linux's login. > I wish they would be sent to older stables as well, but > they won't patch, so it's not worth the effort. > >>> mingetty is unable to start on anything else than tty0. >>> It exits after a few seconds. > > > I suspect this was always so since forever.

Then you can attach to this tty using screen.
