There are better ways to get boot itme log output.

You don't even need to set NAutoVT to 0 for that, you can simply instantiate as many getty instances as you wish by symlinking getty@.service from /usr/lib/systemd/system/ into /etc/systemd/system/getty.wants/getty@tty2.service and so on... > WRT part 1, I don't see from reading that man page how NAutoVTs= > could do anything to enable and/or further a first and only X > session regardless how started to run unconditionally on tty7. logind will not configure how X works.
