Since yesterday I've been seeing that too.  I'm pretty sure that if you
build a VM from core-uupdates, the console is fine.

I haven't looked into the details of the console/tty setup, so I must
have messed-up something.  Sorry!

Meanwhile we do have ssh login :-)

The startup now goes like this

    startup -> runsystem -> init -> runsystem.hurd -> rc -> shepherd

and; i would like to move towards

    -startup -> rc -> shepherd

if that's possible.

Greetings,
janneke
