I'm not clear on this. Do you mean a login failure? Or something else, like a network issue? What happens is specific to the error, but your question is so general I have no clue what you want.

mingetty
MINGETTY(8) Linux Programmer's Manual MINGETTY(8)
NAME
mingetty - minimal getty for consoles
SYNOPSIS
mingetty [--noclear] [--nonewline] [--noissue] [--nohangup] [--nohostname] [--long-hostname] [--loginprog=/bin/login] [--nice=10]
[--delay=5] [--chdir=/home] [--chroot=/chroot] [--autologin username] [--loginpause] tty
DESCRIPTION
mingetty is a minimal getty for use on virtual consoles. Unlike agetty(8), mingetty is not suitable for serial lines. I recommend using
mgetty(8) for this purpose.
OPTIONS
--noclear
Do not clear the screen before prompting for the login name (the screen is normally cleared).
--nonewline
Do not print a newline before writing out /etc/issue.
--noissue
Do not output /etc/issue.
--nohangup
Do not call vhangup() to disable writing to this tty by other applications.
--nohostname
Do not print the hostname before the login prompt.
--long-hostname
By default the hostname is only printed until the first dot. With this option enabled, the full text from gethostname() is shown.
--loginprog /bin/login
Change the login app.
--nice 10
Change the priority by calling nice().
--delay 5
Sleep this many seconds after startup of mingetty.
--chdir /home
Change into this directory before calling the login prog.
--chroot /chroot
Call chroot() with this directory name.
--autologin username
Log the specified user automatically in without asking for a login name and password. Check the -f option from /bin/login for this.
--loginpause
Wait for any key before dropping to the login prompt. Can be combined with --autologin to save memory by lazily spawning shells.
ISSUE ESCAPES
mingetty recognizes the following escapes sequences which might be embedded in the /etc/issue file:
d insert current day (localtime),
l insert line on which mingetty is running,
m inserts machine architecture (uname -m),
inserts machine's network node hostname (uname -n),
o inserts domain name,
inserts operating system release (uname -r),
insert current time (localtime),
s inserts operating system name,
u resp. U the current number of users which are currently logged in. U inserts "n users", where as u only inserts "n".
v inserts operating system version (uname -v).
EXAMPLE
"Linux eos i386 #1 Tue Mar 19 21:54:09 MET 1996" was produced by putting "s
m v" into /etc/issue.
FILES
/etc/issue, /var/run/utmp.
