Soory for the delay ...

But you're wrong in part

gdm is allways launch before init can launch gettys.

In a slow computer, gdm spend enough time before try to get the next VT. =20
In the meantime, the rc script ends and init can launch the gettys=20
_before_ gdm try to get next VT.

In a fast computer, or when the rc script spends more time after gdm.sh,=20
gdm gets vt1 and init's gettys are dump enough to not test before alloc=20
VTs.

And you end with both an init getty and gdm on vt1.
