All,
I'm having an interesting issue. On one of my arch installs that was
upgraded to systemd, dynamic vc allocation doesn't work, whereas on a new
install it's working fine. Has anyone else experienced this issue and/or
managed to fix it?

One can also use screen for multiple terminals if the console limitation
becomes an issue.
Thanks,
