Oops, sorry, my mistake.

The relevant file is at /etc/sv/getty-tty?/run. I think. Give me a minute to check...

EDIT: yup, that seems to work:

#!/bin/sh -euC

# Disable service, if /dev/tty{N} does not exist. See #914788.
if ! test -c /dev/tty1 ; then
   rm /etc/service/getty-tty1
   exit 0
fi

pgrep -x getty -t tty1 && exit 163
pgrep -x agetty -t tty1 && exit 163
! type fgetty >/dev/null 2>&1 || exec chpst -P fgetty tty1
exec chpst -P agetty -a empty 38400 tty1 linux

Replace empty with the actual username though, ofc.

Edit /etc/inittab, here's the relevant section for my version in Alpine:

# Set up a couple of getty's
tty1::respawn:/sbin/agetty -a empty 38400 tty1
tty2::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2
tty3::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty3
tty4::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4
tty5::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5
tty6::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6

^ So that runs agetty with the autologin option for my user on TTY1.

Obviously Devuan's file is different (I think it uses agetty by default) but the principle is the same.
