check the /sys/i386/conf/WHATEVER file for a line like
options NCONS=4 #4 virtual consoles
and later for a line like
device sc0 on isa? port ...

on some very old installations this was pc0. pc0 is another console driver
and it don't support virtual consoles. then you have to get the syscons
package from the net.
hope this helps,
tanel
ps. if you change anything in this file, you must do also
config WHATEVER
cd /sys/compile/WHATEVER
make depend ; make ; cp 386bsd /
