Thanks for the quick reply.
/dev/console does exists and I believe permissions are:
crw----- /dev/console
Don't quote me on this I am working from memory.
After changing permissions for group and all users to rw i
got console back. I will make sure I change securelevel to
-1 and report what might be causing this behavior.
After than that upgrade went fine and system is now stable.
