Yes, I try to log via the i.MX serial ports.

>Are you sure you did not modify nfsroot at all?

I made two modifications to nfsroot, but don't think these should interfere 
with login process:

a) I added /lib/modules/<my kernel string name>/... where I added the kernel 
modules

b) I added /dev/ttySMX0 & /dev/ttySMX1 which major number 204 and minor 41,42 
which are the device nodes of the i.MX serial ports. I also removed /dev/ttyS0 
and ln'd it to /dev/ttySMX0 as I was getting errors saying "Bummer can't open 
/dev/ttyS0". After doing these changes, the login screen appeared, not before.
