I only need one tty enabled, right?

Disabling additional ttys to save RAM on Debian 7, and I'm wondering if I can disable all but one with no problems.

  • If you're on OpenVZ, you need 0. If you're on KVM, you need 1. If you're on Xen PV, you only need console xvc0, no TTY's. If you're on Xen HVM, you need 1. If you're on dedi, 1 is enough but more is nice.

  • Using DigitalOcean, so I'm not sure what type of VPS this is, so I'll disable all but 1 tty. Thanks.

  • DO is using KVM but you don't got access to your kernel.

  • I bought my first KVM... how to disable those tty? I hate to see a lot of process after ps | aux

    echo ”openvt -c 1 /bin/bash” >> /etc/rc.local

    ...just kidding.. Don't actually do that.
