No, getty isn't just for serial terminals.  It handles virtual consoles
as well.  For example, here's the line corresponding to virtual console 1
in my inittab:
c1:2345:respawn:/sbin/fgetty tty1
If I wanted a virtual console 7, I'd do something like:
c7:2345:respawn:/sbin/fgetty tty7
Yours probably looks different than mine, because I don't run the
version of getty that most of the rest of the Linux world uses.

HTH,
