I have disabled gdm3 automatically loading at startup.

Now from a cold boot the boot splash image (dell in this case see image) persists. The laptop is active and I can SSH in. I can enter console as normal and then login.

How do I finish booting into console awaiting login? This is stopping the laptop blanking the screen and entering display power-save mode.

Edit: Actually Ctrl + Alt+ F1 etc don't open TTY1 either, I've broken something at startup it appears, but I am still able to SSH in.

journalctl -b returns this at the end which stands out to me

Here is the full boot log if anyone can point me in the direction of where I should investigate: https://paste.ee/p/oiDxG
