the "FirstVT" option is not understood by gdm now, so no need to modify
custom.conf

do this and with disabled graphical boot (e.g. no "rhgb quit" in kernel
line in grub.conf) you will have X on vt7

with graphical boot you must delete a file in /var/spool/gdm before
starting gdm (in the prefdm script) - I don't use graphical boot, but
this is the theory

the key is the "--force-active-vt" option passed to gdm by plymouth
(indirectly via a file in /var/spool/gdm) and then gdm passes explicit
"vt1" to the X server
