getty_ps has its tty and baudrate bass-ackwards from how agetty has it. Try
c1:123:respawn:/sbin/getty tty1 38400 linux gettydefs
c2:12345:respawn:/sbin/getty tty2 38400 linux gettydefs
c3:3:respawn:/sbin/getty tty3 38400 linux gettydefs
c4:3:respawn:/sbin/getty tty4 38400 linux gettydefs
c5:3:respawn:/sbin/getty tty5 38400 linux gettydefs
c6:3:respawn:/sbin/getty tty6 38400 linux gettydefs
c7:3:respawn:/sbin/getty tty7 38400 linux gettydefs
c8:3:respawn:/sbin/getty tty8 38400 linux gettydefs
c9:3:respawn:/sbin/getty tty9 38400 linux gettydefs
It works for me.
