Thanks to Paul LaMadeleine, Steve Smith, and Stuart Hayes. You each helped
get me to the solution. What I did was shut down consoled again. I
restarted the lat daemon. I also checked and saw that even after I
shutdown consoled, that a child process was still going. I killed that
process manually. I then issued the "/sbin/console_start clean" again.
When I tried to make another connection with the "console" command, it
gave me the same error that the system was unavailable, but then the
display quickly switched to a message indicating that the console is now
available. I then checked the other console ports and they all work fine
now so our Console manager is fixed.
