I tried, but messed something up. What I did was modify the lines:

ttyE0   "/usr/libexec/getty Pc"         vt220   on secure
ttyE1   "/usr/libexec/getty Pc"         vt220   on secure
ttyE2   "/usr/libexec/getty Pc"         vt220   on secure
ttyE3   "/usr/libexec/getty Pc"         vt220   on secure

to state "on" instead of off. Now the console is somehow broken - some 
characters get 'lost', at times it becomes unresponsive, etc. (It did 
say something like 'device unavailable /dev/ttyE0..E3' but I lost the 
actual error message. I have /dev/ttyE0..E7 and /dev/E7cfg present.

Can you send me a sample of your file?
