So I am at a loss about why ttyS2 works and ttyS1 does not. As

Check /var/log/messages and /var/log/secure.  Assuming you typed the right password, it's 
probably an issue with root logging into an "unsecure" tty or some pam issue.  
Are you logging in as root or as an unprivileged user?  This doesn't seem arm specific.

Thanks for making me look into /var/log/secure. It was rejecting the root login claiming 
that "tty 'tty1' is not secure". I then found out about /etc/securetty and 
added ttyS0..ttyS2 to it, and it worked.
