The virtual consoles are created by systemd at startup.
Do you have the following files on your system?
/usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-getty-generator
/usr/lib/systemd/system/console-getty.service
/usr/lib/systemd/system/container-getty at .service
/usr/lib/systemd/system/getty.target
/usr/lib/systemd/system/getty at .service
/usr/lib/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/getty.target
/usr/share/man/man8/systemd-getty-generator.8.gz
/etc/systemd/logind.conf
The last file contains the defaults that systemd uses when generating
gettys.
$ cat /etc/systemd/logind.conf

You could just do a
dnf reinstall systemd
on your system. Something must have gone really wrong for virtual
consoles to be missing.
