Apologies Sam, I'd forgotten about this. No, the issue appears to have been sorted under Parkes.

David, is this still happening to you with Parkes?

Changing this to minor as it seems like this would just be annoying but not break anything; tell us if that is not the case.

Scrub the update. Having monitored boot-time for the last few days I can confirm that it is indeed random. For example I have been booted to tty5, tty3, tty2 and tty6 over the last four days. It would seem that this is happening when in the process of "setting console screen modes and fonts". For your information, I have installed both console-setup and console-terminus on this yeeloong and have set the terminus font as my default.

Just to be clear: David is using a base install, so no X.

I suspected that also GDM would start on a random terminal between tty7, tty8 and tty9. I've just booted 5 times and it started on tty7 every time. Guess I was wrong.

Update. It does not appear to be random as first thought. Each time I boot, tty6 is used.
