</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; Hi there,
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; I just try to install a cauldron to setup a test IPv6 firewall/router.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; To setup server I do a minimum install:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; - /boot on its own partition
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; - /var /tmp and swap on lvm
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; - select no packages categories but yes install doc
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; - no post configuration, so no X11 (hey it's a server)
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; At boot the system started but stop to &quot;starting display manager&quot; (??)
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; and I were unable to reach any text terminal.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> No text terminal at all? Not on tty2 or 3?
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Indeed, alt + F2 show the login prompt. But before I pressed alt + F2 ps
</I>&gt;<i> was not showing any &quot;*getty&quot; program, a bit confusing, especially since
</I>&gt;<i> there is nothing on first console.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> If you try and start dm (prefdm.service) then you will NOT get a tty1
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> getty (prefdm.service conflicts with <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">getty at tty1.service</A>), but all other
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> tty's should be fine (handled by <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">autovt at .service</A>)
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Maybe, but I never asked to have prefdm and in fact I don't want X
</I>&gt;<i> terminal.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> All sys admin expect to have a tty on first console and just having
</I>&gt;<i> &quot;starting dm service&quot; whereas I know it cannot start is really
</I>&gt;<i> confusing.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Cannot prefdm/X11/whatever be started on 7nd console like during the
</I>&gt;<i> years 90th ? :)
</I>
Ah, back at that one again. We had a lengthy and lively debate about
this not so long ago where exactly this scenario came up. Don't
remember whether it was on this list or the -discuss list.
