ipmi – Linux: Why does Single User mode work on Serial Console but not on the attached Keyboard/Video/Monitor? – Server Fault

From [WayBack] ipmi – Linux: Why does Single User mode work on Serial Console but not on the attached Keyboard/Video/Monitor? – Server Fault (slightly edited; thanks Patrick!):
Because init has not spawned off multiple TTYs yet (getty, mgetty, etc), so you only have the primary TTY. The primary TTY is the last console= parameter on the kernel command line. All the console parameters get the output, but only the last one will be able to act as input.
