Yes. If you don't even login, then do ALT-F1, ALT-F2, ALT-F3, etc.,
what you're doing is flipping through the getty's for those tty's.
So, you could ALT-F3, then login to tty3; after that,
if you ALT-F1, you'll see another login prompt, so you could
then login to tty1.

While the brown ale he quaffed,
Loud then the champion laughed,
And as the wind-gusts waft
The sea-foam brightly,
So the loud laugh of scorn,
Out of those lips unshorn,
From the deep drinking-horn
Blew the foam lightly. --Longfellow
