If I understand you correct, you want something where you have multiple
consoles by hitting something like Ctrl+Alt+F1, &c.  If that's correct,
look at wscons.  Here's the key lines from my /etc/wscons.conf


#screen	0	-	vt100
screen	1	-	vt100
screen	2	-	vt100
screen	3	-	vt100


Then you want to also update /etc/ttys accordingly.

console	"/usr/libexec/getty Pc"		vt100	on secure
ttyE0	"/usr/libexec/getty Pc"		vt220	off secure
ttyE1	"/usr/libexec/getty Pc"		vt220	on secure
ttyE2	"/usr/libexec/getty Pc"		vt220	on secure
ttyE3	"/usr/libexec/getty Pc"		vt220	on secure

That should open up five terminals for you.

Then also enable wscons in /etc/rc.conf with the following line:

wscons=yes

Let me know if you find any better ways to do this stuff or any errors
in my settings.
