The problem is subtle. The variable SHELL is no longer exported by init, or whatever it is that was previously exporting it. Openvt defaults to running $SHELL if it's set, if no command_line is specified on openvt's command line. But, since $SHELL is no longer set, you must specify "/bin/bash"as an additional argument to openvt. This is already in the FAI mainline, as of about a month ago: http://cvs.debian.org/fai/lib/subroutines.diff?r1=1.71&r2=1.72
