If no console driver is enabled (or if a non-present driver is selected with something like console=null in an attempt to disable the console), opening /dev/console errors out, and init scripts and other userspace code that relies on the existence of a console will fail. Symlinking /dev/null to /dev/console does not solve the problem since /dev/null does not behave like a real TTY. To just provide a dummy console to userspace when no console driver is available or desired, add a ttynull driver which simply discards all writes. It can be chosen on the command line in the standard way, i.e. with console=ttynull.
