I guess the selinux policy hinders systemd-vconsole-setup to call /bin/loadkeys or something like this. bug or feature?
The "tty" and "tty0" special files look mislabeled. On my F16 system they are labeled with types devtty_t resp. tty_device_t. systemd relabels /dev early during boot. Either the relabelling did not work, or something broke the labels later. See if this helps: yum reinstall selinux-policy\*
mhh. strange! I guess your are correct. I don't see this bug anymore. please close this bug and sorry for the noise!
