do you have a separate /usr partition?  it sounds to me like you forgot to
mount your /usr partition when you did the install, so all the /usr
binaries (including the missing /usr/libexec/getty) are now on your root
partition.  when netbsd goes into multi-user mode, it mounts your empty
/usr partition and hides all the binaries.

if this isn't the case, then something has gone quite wrong ;-)

i hope this helps.

later.
