hi community

I see in /etc/inittab we usually spawn 6 getty:
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1
2:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2
3:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty3
4:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4
5:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5
6:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6

I think we can comment out them all to free 3MB of ram and to have less running useless programs.
on my phone I've no tty active: I login only from ssh or from gui.
(obviously virtual terminal is not affected by this change)
