Re: xconsole/getty 7

Perhaps also a comment in /etc/rc.conf or /etc/defaults/rc.conf suggesting that, if xdm is subsequently turned off manually by the user a change should also be made to /etc/ttys to restore expected behavior.

And it imeadiately goes away when I change /etc/ttys as suggested
before (turrn off console, turn on ttyE0).

So the easy fix is to change the generated /etc/ttys in sysinst when xdm
is turned on.
