- Need to move "setup-installer.sh" to initramfs stage for
enabling/disabling getty services
- Because cOS' initramfs stage runs in chroot env and /tmp is not
in BindPaths, here-document can't be used. Thus we need to store that
override.conf as "/etc/tty-dashboard-override.conf", then copy this
file to the correct service.d directory as drop-ins.
- For testing purpose, the console dashboard will always show on tty6.
TODOs:
- How to determine which tty to show console dashboard?
- Provide a Harvester config such as `console_tty` for users to choose
which tty to show the dashboard
