I don't know for sure (maybe someone else can give a specific answer, but I'm responding so you'll get a quick response tonight to *maybe* find the answer until someone more knowledgeable can give you a better response), but I believe you'll find that it has something to do with the "getty" lines in /etc/inittab.
