This is definitely a different bug than the one that was originally reported, then. I'm marking the Linaro task as resolved, so we don't confuse the issue given that the original bug indicated an upstart race condition that still hasn't been addressed.

The reason to prefer 'start on starting' is to avoid letting the getty start up and output any login prompt to the tty when we're going to turn around right afterwards and spawn a shell.

[Bug 652221] Re: Headless on beagle, beagle XM, does not boot into tty
openvt: vt 1 is in use; command aborted use `openvt -f' to force. The weird thing about this is that getty does no check on VT_GETSTATE, so it will happily let run multiple gettys on the same tty. ... os openvt looks a bit overzealous. tty1 only counts as used because it is assigned to the console inside the kernel ... which is probably a bad reason for refusing to run something on a vt. So this may a bizarre special case which happens if you try to use openvt with tty1 - nothing process appears to have tty1 open if you look with ls -l /proc/*/fd/ | grep 'tty\|console' Re the upstart problems, it seems bizarre to start getty in tty1 and then kill it and run something else.

Interesting to note that kbd/src/deallocvt.c contains this:
} else if (num == 1) {
fprintf(stderr,
_(%s: VT 1 is the console and cannot be deallocated\n),
progname);
exit(1);
}
This is decided in userspace without asking the kernel, suggesting that
someone, somewhere believed tty1 really is a special case.

[Bug 652221] Re: Headless on beagle, beagle XM, does not boot into tty
Opening a task on upstart for this bug; I have no explanation for why
the 'stop tty1' is hanging, so that definitely looks like an upstart bug
that should be looked at. If this is really so unreliable, we can
certainly work around it in Linaro for release ('start on started tty1'
is one option).
As for respawn: the 'stop tty1' should be guarded with a '|| true', but
should not otherwise need to be changed.
so
pre-start script
stop tty1 || true
end script
