This may seem like a silly question, but I've been wondering about this for quite some time. When the kernel boots, when it gets to sd0, it says: sd0 on isa sd0: vaga color <16 virtual consoles, flags = 0x0> But after the booting is finished, only Alt-F1 to Alt-F8 work. And when I do ps -waux | grep tty I can only see ttyv0 to ttyv7, apart from the console where I logged in. So, question: where have the other 8 virtual consoles gone? -- Bart.
