I only have a rpi2 and rpi3 here. Having said that, when the rpi3 came out, raspbian made changes so that they could provide the same sd image for all rpi models. That means that the serial console in raspbian will always be on /dev/serial0, no matter which model of the rpi is being used. What complicates things more is that if the serial port is missing, systemd will happily ignore it, but agetty will keep exiting, causing sysvinit to keep respawning it over, and over again. Devuan bug reports: https://bugs.devuan.org/db/87/87.html https://bugs.devuan.org/db/88/88.html https://bugs.devuan.org/db/89/89.html I see that bug 89 was closed, even though 87 and 88 which are prerequisites for bug 89 weren't closed. I've been meaning to look into the status of this and other bugs, but lack of another sd card, and time has so far prevented me from doing so. I've since gotten a second sd card, but time is still very much lacking here for now. The bottom line for you is that since the rpi0 doesn't have a built in bluetooth adapter, the serial port in devuan will be on /dev/ttyAMA0. That means you need to specify that as the serial port in cmdline.txt, and spin up agetty on that port in /etc/inittab.
