scripts/functions: On panic change to tty1 if chvt around
To make sure the user can read any error messages displayed. (LP: #243226) usplash and other may cause the user to land somewhere, where nothing is displayed. merge from Ubuntu with adding conditional chvt invocation, as it may not be around. Thanks: Luke Yelavich <themuso@ubuntu.com> Thanks: Colin Watson <cjwatson@ubuntu.com> Signed-off-by: maximilian attems <maks@debian.org>
