Interesting. The thing with xdm seems to be a different problem. Are
you sure you don't have any "getty"s running on the console?

Next time, try breaking into the debugger (Command-Power, I think).
From the db> prompt, type `ps' to see if there are any gettys running.
From there, you can also shut down to single user with `kill 1'
followed by `c'.
