What does this do? I mean when does the action "add" of "vtconsole" occur? During the boot or when the user tries to access the console? Is it possible that console-setup fails to setup the virtual consoles because they don't exist yet? If yes, then how do we fix this? Is a command such as "echo >/dev/tty5" going to help? One of the things I have in my todo list for console-setup is to make it work during the initrd phase. Therefore, it will be preferable if the setup of the console doesn't run setupcon directly but by means of the boot scripts in /etc/init.d because these scripts can check whether the initrd has set already the console up or not.
