Hi
May be in /etc/inittab you will see lines as show below: # Run gettys in standard runlevels 1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1 2:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty2 3:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty3 4:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty4 5:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty5 6:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty6 by increasing line you will get almost 12 terminals example: 7:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty7 |
