- Disable logins from all consoles except one, say, tty1 (check out /etc/securetty)
Doesnt make sense to allow root access only from console tty1 because if person has access to tty2, tty3..etc he also has access to tty1 too. So might as well allow(infact deny for more security) root access from all console ttyN. Use 'su - root' after logging in as normal user.
